Petticoat Lane, located in Newmarket CB8 8 Map, was a bustling and vibrant street in London's Middlesex Street during the late 19th century. The renowned artist William Luker captured its essence in his painting titled "Middlesex Street (Late Petticoat Lane) on a Sunday Morning, 1891.

A black and white photograph showcases its charm and character, reminding us of the rich history embedded within these streets.

Through it all, Polly Nathans Fish Shop remained an enduring presence amidst shifting landscapes.
