"The pavement of Hallgarth-street, Durham, is about to be taken up, for the purpose of giving trial to the plan of Mr. M'ADAM, for
the improvement of roads; and should the experiment succeed, the other streets will probably be doomed to submit to the same
'levelling system.' Dean-street, Newcastle, and the entrance into Gateshead, are also to be M'Adamized."

Those pesky modernisers again:  "Levelling up" is clearly not a new trend!
