Scope and content
Colour photograph of Grafton Street taken by Charles Cushman on 13 June 1961.
Grafton Street was named after Henry FitzRoy, 1st Duke of Grafton, the illegitimate son of Charles II. The street was developed from a country lane by the Dawson family in 1708. Today it feels like a bland British high street.
