alleyed

/ˈæleɪd/

adjective

Having alleys; equipped with or provided with narrow passages or lanes between buildings.

Etymology

From alley (narrow passage, from Old French alee) plus the adjectival suffix -ed (having the quality of). The -ed suffix creates an adjective from a noun.

Kelly Says

Old cities are 'alleyed'—networks of narrow pathways that served medieval towns perfectly but now confuse tourists and satellite maps, showing how urban design literally changes how lost you can become.
