Notes: The 1841 Post Office directory mentions a "Falcon Brewery" on Green Walk (which ran south from Bankside, also now Hopton St), which may possibly have been related or may just have taken the well-attested historical name that also gave itself to the dock and to the modern "Falcon Point" residential development.
