More about this scene
Until the 1930s the south side of the market, facing the camera, was bordered by a row of buildings which would be later demolished. The gabled stone building (in front of the church) housed the Market Offices, and was also a drop-in centre for the unemployed. It was built of stone from the Session House, which had stood in the market until 1805. Paynes the bakers were in the pale upright building with advertisements for wedding cakes on the frontage. They were the first commercial ice-cream makers in Kettering. The Albion Temperance Hotel is nearest the road. When this block was demolished it was replaced by a car park.
