'Aloof's Ramp', 'Jardin de Glynn': Gibraltar's street names and an eighteenth-century Western Mediterranean spatial practice
We will be talking about why Gibraltar’s assemblage of historic English and Gibraltar Spanish streetnames is unique. The personal-names within Gibraltar’s streetnames were borne by an eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century community of practice who specialised in servicing Western Mediterranean forts. We count about 70 civilian personal-names in Gibraltar’s (official) historic English streetnames (predominantly of English, Genoese, Moroccan-Sephardic, Menorcan origin) and about 30 in Gibraltar’s (unofficial, but still historic) Spanish streetnames, which unsurprisingly contain Spanish surnames too. Thus Gibraltar streetnames provide archaeological trace of this Western Mediterranean economic workforce, not apparent in streetnames elsewhere..
