A mews with a view

            A view along the rather lovely Circus Lane, a narrow, cobbled street lined by what were old mews, presumably for housing the horses and coaches of the grander town houses nearby, now a highly desirable place to live in their own right, the old mews converted to some very fine homes. Looking eastwards along it gives a view of the square tower of Saint Stephen's church, which dominates the skyline in this lower part of the Georgian era New Town (it also stands right in line with the main, straight road coming down from the top of the New Town so it is always in view for several blocks - the New Town was arranged very carefully for giving splendid views from many spots. There are quite a few mews lanes dotted around the New Town, most of which have also been converted to very desirable dwellings now, but this lane here is my favourite example.
