Summary[edit]

Description
English: Murivance Looking down towards the river from the bottom of St John's Hill across its junction with Murivance, which runs to the left (west) to join Town Walls.

Murivance is a Norman French word associated with 'murs' (walls) and one of several unusual street names in Shrewsbury included in a poem by Ruth Padel about her ancestor Charles Darwin:

The Efficacy of Prayer

“I often had to run through town between the School

    and home.” Slipping the shuts between one dark street 

and the next: Shoplatch, Mardol, Grope Lane,

    Butcher Row.
“Being very fleet

I was generally in time but I often prayed

    earnestly to God for aid.” Gullet Passage, Bear Steps, 

Portobello, Murivance. “I attributed my success

to prayer, marvelling how greatly I was helped.”
