Main Shopping Area

The 1970's redeveloped shopping area bounded by Brown Street to the west, Bankfield to the north and St. James's Street to the south, including both St. James's Street frontages. Here, as well as post-redevelopment images, you will find images which chart the redevelopment of this shopping area and also images prior to redevelopment - the old Market Hall, the Palace block, and former properties on Bridge Street, Market Street, Howe Street and St. James's Street.
