Coffee Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 I didn't realise until a recent visit; but all those fairly new buildings at the rear of the market look like they're going to be demolished. Yep, all of them, plus the market and the boots shop. Wonder if the traders were offered a 50% cut in rates and rent or a new market which would they choose? Don't really get why the boots store needs to be demolished, surely they could adopt the present building. PS the new market will nbe half the size of the old one!

Sparky71 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 The Boots building isn't being demolished, it's being gutted and the market will eventually be located inside. Its façade will stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that is not being demolished is the front wall which is listed. You can see from the brick work that the building is quite new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Yes and the front is the façade like TT&TW said Coffee It's a bit more than just a 'wall' though, have you ever looked up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
