The Regeneration of Devonport (3)

The towered building at the end of this street is the old Devonport Market Hall.

A market began operating in this building in 1835, and although damaged by bombing in 1941 it continued in use until 1956. Then it was taken inside the extended boundary of the Royal Dockyard, to become a naval store facility.
Now that much of "The Wall" (see yesterday's post), has been demolished it has re-emerged from its enforced separation from the community, and it will be interesting to see how imaginative its new uses will be.
