Abstract: |
The assessment revealed that the site was initially developed only on its western end, but before the mid-19th century the central part had also been built over. The creation of a new road (Merchants Road) through the site in the late 1860s enabled development on both sides to take place. A public hall was erected on the north side and shops on the south side, all eventually part of a large department store. After the store went into liquidation in 1911 the southern half became a garage and car showroom, in which use it continued almost to this day. The northern part of the site was badly damaged during the Second World War. [Au(adp)] |
