Inscription. At the Cliffs, a system evolved slowly over time between the musicians who played there. Buskers necessarily had to spread out over the site so that the music would not sonically overlap. Out of this necessity evolved an informal number of regular spots called “pitches”, where musicians would stake out a musical territory. (Marker Number 4.)
