I recall back in the 60's looking over the Hepworth's building from the top of the YMC building on the opposite side. It was really strange, what was the back of the shops going down Fargate was infact the front of a row of very old houses with bay windows and a cobbled street. This had to be the original Fargate as the one that we now know was part of the graveyard to what is now the cathedral.
