Description
A charming winding lane, lined with trees, some dating back centuries. Only the occasional rotting corpse litters the cobbles.
History
Hogue Street takes its name from the wild boars which were once prevalent in this part of the Wyke family's private lands. As Chaucer himself wrote:
Ye wylde hoggys of Wykkes Wode
Are farr moar wylde than is thoghte goode.
Wyth tusk of whyte and eyen of redde
Be ware, pylgrymme, lest thou wynde up dedde.
The upper-class residents who bought up the picturesque cottages in the 19th century chose to change the name from Hogge Lane to Hogue Street, feeling that it gave the street a more gentrified air.
Barricade Policy
Good luck barricading a street, folks.
Current Status
No hogs remain.
