A view of Broadway, looking across Stoney Street, taken from Plumbtre Place (the latter being mainly behind the photographer). Highly visible are these impressive examples of 19th century industrial architecture. The Lace Market was never a market in the sense of having stalls but instead it was a mixture of salesrooms and warehouses for storing, displaying and selling the lace. Most of the area is typical Victorian, with tall densely packed red brick building-lined streets. Whilst some of the buildings are now offices, others have been converted in apartments and student accommodation (Halls of Residence).
