The edge of Pitcairn is a lofty street, known as the ‘Hill of Difficulty', running from Bounty Bay to the Edge. This street, which follows the track utilized by the rebels when they landed, ascents vertical for 70 meters embracing the side of the bluff. As in the times of the double-crossers all provisions should in any case be shipped up this street, despite the fact that farm vehicles and motorbikes make the undertaking less burdensome today. 

   

   The islanders live in and around Adamstown, the first home of the double-crossers. 

Adamstown is all around arranged on a northerly slant, 120 to 150 meters above ocean level, and covers an area of 20 hectares. From the Edge, the primary street runs for around 800 meters through Adamstown, generally corresponding with the shoreline. The houses are dissipated along the principle street and side streets. Along from the Edge, simply past Big Fence and 'drawback' the fundamental street, is the Satellite Station, which houses the island's broadcast communications framework. Further along the fundamental street, the General Store is arranged on the edge of the street. 



The side street next to the corner shop drives down to the three public generators. 'Perkins', the fundamental generator, is bigger (100 kva) than the other more established Lister generators which are 50 kva each. The generators work for five hours toward the beginning of the day and five hours in the evening. Proceeding with the fundamental street, The Square, upside' the street, is the core of Pitcairn.   




The Courthouse, with a veranda running along its whole length, takes up one side of the Square, and outside, on a plinth, stands Bounty's anchor, which was recuperated by Yankee in 1957. The corridor fills in as a gathering place for true gatherings and as a point of convergence for get-togethers and public capacities. The inward dividers are enhanced with chronicled and official representations and memorabilia. Straightforwardly across the Square, from the Court House, is the Church.   




The Bounty Bible, previously put away in the congregation, is presently in the new Museum ensured in its substitute a climatically controlled climate. On the third side of the Square is a structure containing the Island Secretary's Office, Library and Post Office and confronting it, close by the fundamental street, is a long seat where individuals sit and hang tight for chapel or sit and inactively tattle. 


At the two finishes of the long seat there are two chimes, which are rung on different events. A progression of strikes in ones and twos is the call for petition; three strikes connotes public work; four strikes is the sign for an offer out of food from a passing boat (this isn't normal nowadays); and five strikes declares the appearance of a boat. Prior to entering the Square, a walkway 'disadvantage' the fundamental street prompts the Health Center.



   The Health Center, worked in 1996, supplanted the old dispensary at       the Square. Further down the fundamental street is Bob's Valley, which around evening time scents of the solid, pleasant aroma of the Queen of the Night blossom. 


Simply past Bob's Valley, is the street prompting the Mill (sugarcane factory), the island graveyard, The Lodge and the Hostel. During 1998 and 1999, the more seasoned lodgings (worked in 1968) went through significant restoration and critical enhancements were made to the living quarters. 



The lodgings are sublimely arranged under the shadow of Gannets Ridge and the yawning cavern where Fletcher Christian is presumed to have gone in isolation to review his island. Back on the fundamental street, past the Banyan trees and Down Fence, the street leads out to Pulau where the School, Museum and the home of the instructor are found. Albeit not stringently talking part of Adamstown, the school and School house sit beneath Christian's Cave and the track paving the way to the cavern can be seen as underneath the school.
