More about this scene
This view is from inside the abbey gateway, looking towards the Market Place and the Town Hall. This side of the gateway, rebuilt around 1450, is plainer than the market place facade. The left- hand or south pedestrian arch was inserted in 1865, and the building on the left was part of the police station, built in 1865 and demolished in 1964 for the present (very 1960s) Abbey Hall. To the right is the 14th-century chancel of St Nicholas's Church.
