Being prey to infill development, the burgage plot has always been an invaluable part of urban development. But where are those that are still intact? A great many were still with us until relatively recently. in Wells, it was as recent as the 1950s before the plots to the North of the city were altered to accommodate a road and more recently only in the 1980s when so many of the plots were subdivided, the back half sold for individual houses. If you know of a plot that has retained its original size without any subdivision or development, please let us know. And if you have any pictures, all the better.
