St Thomas Street (southern end)

* Attractive side street with variety of historic properties facing on to St Thomas’ Church gardens;

* Opportunities for enhancing historic character of street with use of natural stone or pre-cast concrete paving;

* Narrow width of pavements and carriageway mean street would benefit from a shared-use surface.

41. George Street

* Wide street with variety of historic villas, many now with commercial uses, but no retail outlets;

* Attractive long views towards The Solent to the north should be protected;

* Scale of street would accommodate widening of footpaths to allow for planting of medium sized street trees such as Norway Maple (Acerplatanoides);

* Especially important to enhance environment at southern end of street where buses stop; Street should be resurfaced with natural stone or pre-cast concrete paving.
