Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
In July 2012, Northampton Borough Council Planning Committee voted to approve the construction of a new bus station on the site of the Northampton Fishmarket. This put in motion a major development in the heart of the town centre that would mark the end of two of Northampton's structural landmarks. As part of this development both the Fishmarket, a 1930s Deco-style structure, and the Greyfriars Bus Station, purpose-built in the mid-1970s behind the new Grosvenor Shopping Centre in the brutalist style prevalent in building projects at the time, would be demolished. Northamptonshire Archaeology (now MOLA Northampton), was commissioned to carry out historic building recording of the Fishmarket and Greyfriars Bus Station. The work was carried out in two phases between 2012 and 2014 with the principal objective of creating comprehensive photographic and drawn records of the buildings prior to demolition, as well as placing them in their social and historic context | ||||
