Pseudopolis Yard is the name of a circular street in the [[Isle of Gods]], a bit of uptown [[Ankh-Morpork]] almost circled by the river [[Ankh (river)|Ankh]], connected to the rest of uptown Ankh-Morpork by two streets, and to downtown Morpork by four bridges.

Nine streets radiate out from the Yard. Proceeding Turnwise (clockwise) from Lower Broad Way, these are described as:-

*Lower [[Broad Way]] leads back to the [[Patrician's Palace]] and onwards, via the [[Brass Bridge]]. Brewer Street radiates off halfway along and, via [[Contract Bridge (landmark)|Contract Bridge]], leads to [[Cheapside]] on the other side of the river.
*[[Holofernes Street]] crosses back to the University quarter and the main Guildhouses on the [[Street of Alchemists]] and [[Peach Pie Street]] via the [[New Bridge]].
*Lady Lane is a service road to the [[Tanty]] prison that does not cross the river.
* There is another as yet un-identified road on the other side of the Tanty leading, like Lady Lane, to [[Body Street]].
*[[Salis Street]] leads, via one of the swingbridges over [[The Cut|the Cut]], to the Ankh side and the crossroads with [[Prousts]] and [[Park Lane]].
* The next street is un-named, but crosses [[Pon's Bridge]] towards the Shades. On the far side of Pons it is named as [[Sheer Street]]. It is therefore possible Sheer Street extends across to Pseudopolis Yard.
*The next street is also un-named, but ends at the bank and does not cross the river.
*[[The Butts|Butt's Treat]] also does not cross the river, but it leads to the archery practice fields.
*[[Squeezebelly Alley]] is the last and least street radiating off the Yard. It does not cross the river.

It can therefore be seen from the Mappe that the major arterial roadway through the city of Ankh-Morpork runs [[Hubwards Gate]] - Upper Broadway-Patrician's Palace - Brass Bridge-Lower Broad Way - Pseudopolis Yard - Salis Street - the Cut - [[Park Lane]] - [[Edgeway Road]] - [[Rimwards Gate]]. This road can be traced as one completely straight unbroken road right through the City from Gate to Gate.

The [[Opera House]] stands at the dead centre of Pseudopolis Yard, which, in some theories, makes it the absolute dead centre of the City. On the other side of the street, the [[Ankh-Morpork City Watch]]'s headquarters can be found.
