Mercatoria is not in this Focus Area. The narrow streets to which you refer belong to the Gensing Farm area, currently sliced in two between the back gardens of Shepherd Street and North Street, along the SOA boundary, a statistical tool based on 2001 census figures. This bore little resemblance to the experience on the ground when it was imposed, and almost certainly even less now, following the in-migration of artists, musicians, graphic designers, photographers, architects and other professional people and entrepreneurs throughout the whole area, not just Norman Road and Shepherd Street.
