When you think about it, it is sort of odd that so many old towns have such narrow streets. In the days before cars, wagons needed a lot of room to turn around, and it is impossible (I think) to get the horses or oxen to walk backwards.
Certainly, in many old towns in the Western USA, the streets are extra-wide for exactly that reason.
A little puzzling. There must be an historical explanation that I am not seeing.
