A view from the South end of Hyde Market looking down Corporation Street. Immediately on the left is the Midland Bank. Across Market Street on the corner of Corporation Street is the Royal Bank of Scotland. Further down Corporation Street on the opposite side of the road can be glimpsed the domes of the Jamia Mosque. Nearer is the Town Hall from which a flag is flying. In the foreground on the left is a board showing details of the plans to revamp the Market ground. http://spadsky-hydedailyphoto.blogspot.com/2012/01/hyde-market-at-end-of-2011.html Behind it lies the "Crown Pole" http://oldhyde.blogspot.com/2009/01/crown-pole-2002.html erected in 2002 to commemorate the Queen's golden jubilee. The pole is to be re-sited but the plans do not say where. The telephone box is to be retained.
