Plymouth - Barbican

In the narrow streets of the historic quarter of Plymouth, "The Barbican", the visitor can see an excellent example of 16th century architecture in the Elizabethan House on New Street, which has been fitted out exactly as it would have been in Tudor times. In Southside Street the remains of a 14th century Dominican monastery can still be seen.
