Hi,
Back in the early Fifties an Auntie & Uncle of mine use to live in a courtyard off Little Park Street rather like the well known Old Palace Yard which had its entrance off what is now High St,maybe they were one & the same can anybody enlighten me?
Many Thanks.

"Palace Yard" was in
Earl Street directly opposite the Council House and was destroyed in the war.
"Little Palace Yard" was off Little Park Street and I think directly opposite the telephone exchange. It survived the war but was demolished later by the council.

There are many more pictures of it here:
