    Charles Lutwidge Dodgson was a high ranking official there, and lived in what has become Pozition. His grandson had the same name and used to stay with him. His grandson was better known as Lewis Caroll.

    On the 'Kingston Observatory' corner building, there's a sign - 'High Street Shelter'. Looks like it's on the corner of Scale or Bishop Lane and Lowgate?
