The building on the left of the two arches is the old town Fire Station, which was replaced in the 1960's with a new station on Innage Lane. The property is now a retail outlet. If on a visit to the town you look above the shop front you will see engraved the words Fire Station.

When this photograph is enlarged, it is possible to make out a sign for the Fire Station on the right.
In 1889 the left part was burnt down and replaced by the gable-fronted fire station, which is now a kebab restaurant.
