No Angel....

.....the name of this alley in the east end is wrongly attributed to a probationer of the Church of Scotland employed as tutor to two little boys in a gentleman's family. Having fallen in love with a maid there, Gabriel was observed one day by his pupils to give her a kiss-which they mentioned innocently to their parents. Fearful of loss of reputation and failure in the ministry, he brooded over this until he became mad with revenge on the boys. One Sabbath while strolling with his pupils on Gabriel's road, he cut their throats with a pocket knife. He was seized, condemned and executed.

Dark and grisly huh?

I stopped here today for a refreshing pint of foaming ale at the Guildford Arms....great boozer.
