Cobbled street surface in Custom House Passage Unlike some of the other 18th century street surfaces around St Ives such as <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4928337">SW5140 : Fore Street, St Ives</a> <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3135725">SW5140 : Bailey's Lane, St. Ives</a> and <a href="https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/7057826">SW5140 : Cobbled street surface on Mount Zion</a>, Custom House Passage seems to have avoided being listed. That must be an oversight, as these stones look even less disturbed and relaid than many on the more heavily trafficked roads.
