This was the main street of the original medieval town and it, and the immediate area is still full of a jumble of late medieval and 17th century buildings.
Just around the far corner the street has stepped pavements as it descends steeply down the hill.
Dartmouth was inaccessible by wheeled transport until well into the 17th century and this street was part of the precipitous packhorse route down into the compact little town that clustered around St Saviour's Church and Bayard's Cove, the original and only quayside until the town began to expand northwards on reclaimed land in the early 17th century.
Once again the Chinese New Year is near and this street will be packed with hungry shoppers. The street is closed to traffic at night converting the street into an open air food centre serving all kinds of local and western food.

MY name is Daz Smith and I am based in Bath in the UK. I spend all my spare time learning the art of photography and love to create images from the people I meet and the things I see on the streets around me.
I mainly shoot in black and white as I love that this focuses all attention on the subject of the image but also every now and then I sneak a little bit of colour into my images.
This is a compilation of some of my recent black and white street photography from August 2016 in Bath and Bristol in the UK. Please comment and share as I have so much to learn and would love to hear from you and what you think of my work.

Excerpt from Wikipedia:
The Gothic revival cathedral was designed by Francis Petre, who also later, in a complete change of style to palladian revival, designed St Patrick's Basilica, Oamaru (1894), Sacred Heart Cathedral, Wellington (1901), the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament, Christchurch (1905), St. Mary's Basilica, Invercargill (1905), St Patrick's Basilica, Waimate (1909) and Sacred Heart Basilica, Timaru (1911). Construction of the Cathedral started in 1878, during the episcopacy of Bishop Patrick Moran. It was used for its first church service in February 1886, and was completed in its unfinished state in May 1886, at a cost of £22,500. The original design, however, was for a much larger building, with a tall spire with a height of 60 meters over the transept.
St Joseph's Cathedral is located beside St Dominic's Priory, also designed by Petre, in 1876. The Priory is no longer used, except for one room utilised by the Cathedral choir. The Cathedral Chapel is situated behind the Priory, and the Traditional Latin Mass is still celebrated there every Sunday. Behind the Cathedral is the Catholic Pastoral Centre, containing the Bishop's office and also the Catholic library.
The cathedral has undergone several modifications, the most notable being the removal of the High Altar after Vatican II; it was returned after a long sojourn in the Dunedin Public Art Gallery. The side altar was dismantled in early 1970, and has since been made into a large Tabernacle, kept in the Blessed Sacrament chapel beside the sanctuary. A new Reconciliation Room has been added to replace the old confessionals in the nave of the cathedral.

I missed sunrise by about an hour but the light was still nice on the Smith Street/Bausch Street Bridge.
Smith Street, Collingwood was once brimming with department stores with grand facades - with factories and working class housing set back in the side streets. These days the grand department store buildings and factories have been gentrified into modern apartment conversions, but there are still some side lanes that look a little gritty in the right light.
