Pyle Street, Newport

Street guide, Isle of Wight

A thoroughfare running through central Newport, connecting the High Street area to the southern parts of the town. Pyle Street has a mix of commercial and residential properties, including shops, takeaways, offices and the Newport and Carisbrooke Community Council offices. The street is busy with traffic during the day as it forms part of the one-way system through the town centre. The buildings are a mix of periods, from older stone and brick frontages to more recent infill. Pyle Street is one of the working streets of Newport, functional rather than picturesque, handling the everyday business of the county town.
