The Market Hall was built in 1804 opposite the Guildhall
and ran between the High Street and the Shambles (marked on
the left on the 1886 1:2500 OS map). However an extra wing opened
in 1881 and ran through to Pump Street, the entrance of which
can still be seen today. The only remnant left of the hall in
the High street is a clock which was given by Richard Padmore
in 1849.
