This approximately 125 year old building is all that remains of Tow Law's once thriving Auction Mart. It is a grade II listed building. The former auction site is now being developed for housing, some of which are clearly visible behind the "bull ring". The photograph was taken from a point where the former Cattle Mart pub stood. The future of the bull ring is uncertain, this has not been helped by vandalism to the building.
