About North Prospect
Where to stay in North Prospect
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
One church, one house. That pair is all the record gives North Prospect, which makes a decision to sleep here a decision about Plymouth itself rather than about anything the area sets in front of a visitor. St James the Less is the church.
Ham House is the house. Plymouth carries the rooms, the transport and everything else a stay out here would otherwise need.
About North Prospect
What are the main landmarks in North Prospect?
Two names, nothing else. St James the Less carries the dedication to St James, and Ham House is the second and last entry the record keeps for this part of Plymouth, with no museum, monument or park listed beside them. The rest of the list is blank.
Anyone wanting more than a church and a house looks to Plymouth.
What is the history of North Prospect?
Plymouth's file for North Prospect runs to a few lines. North Prospect is described as an area in Plymouth and nothing more, without a founding year, without a charter and without a dated event to hang the name on. St James the Less supplies the one ecclesiastical name.
Ham House supplies the one domestic name. What survives of the past here survives as those two buildings, and the account offers no line of settlement, no parish story and no industry behind them.
