Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Newport . Argyll St or Argyle St The street signs here are not in agreement. The older one, high on the wall, shows Argyll whereas the newer one at street level shows Argyle. Ordnance Survey maps show Argyle. Kelly's 1901 Newport street directory shows Argyll,
so it seems that a change was made some time in the 20th century but the old sign was left in place. I do not know the reason for the change. It was not a geographically-aware local council following a change elsewhere, because the spelling of Argyll in Scotland went the other way. Currently it's Argyll, formerly Argyle. |
