Alley end and Town Hall in Market Street (was Market Square)

 

 

 


Looking back is the alleyway leading to High Street

although this archway still exists (2024) it doesn't lead anywhere
the area behind the property is now Sadler's Park housing estate

 

 


Directly in front is what was the Town Hall, now a listed building.

Completed in 1854 in ashlar, neo-classic style - the architect was G.T.Robinson.
