The Market House was situated at 24 Brunswick Place. Also
known as The Market Inn, it was
used as a salesroom following closure. |

My grandfather, Cyril Extence, used to
drink in this pub and gave me a drinking mug that he was given when it
closed (see photo below). On the mug it is called The Market Inn, not The
Market House as stated and a written piece of paper inside notes that the
last landlord was Sid Parr. I notice written on the sign in the image that
it is called Parr's Market Inn. It is known to have been licenced in 1838,
but by 1960 had become the Liberal Club and then a tobacco warehouse, before
becoming the site of Lewis and Rowden's auction house until its' closure
some years ago. It is now a sewing shop. |
