This central triangle of land, in the middle of Horsefair, has been much improved with the demolition of a decrepit old public toilet block, and other old buildings. Additionally, on the 30th June 2011, a new life size statue of a galloping horse was unveiled. This reinforces the origins of the area's name, when long ago horse fairs used to be held here. Although the statue is difficult to see in this view, it can be seen here:- Image This is how Horsefair looked in January 2009 (although photographed from a different position):- Image
