Abstract
In contrast to a monied web, this chapter explores a moment in the town in which the centre of the town was fully inhabited by people who later moved to its periphery on the estate. Considering the sociality that was present, the argument is developed that specific actions have served to disperse this particular manifestation of the communal, but that does not mean that, despite it having been deliberately removed, communal being-ness does not exist when and when it can in the form that it is able. In particular, we discuss the ways in which what was once permitted on the streets is now confined to homes and exists online.
