More about this scene

Market Place lost its market in 1949. Fortunately, it has since been pedestrianised and the market restored. Blue-and-white and green-and-white striped awnings cover the rows of stalls which threaten to overflow into the churchyard.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

If my memory serves me correctly, this junction had the only set of traffic lights in Redditch at one time.
I am not from Redditch but my hubby is...I moved here in 1985 is this what the market place looked like before the Kingfisher Centre took over and made this a walkway? I just can't imagine it!
