A view of one of the interconnecting corridors between the avenues of sheds on this former Wholesale Fruit and Vegetable Market site, circa 1900 & updated in 1938. Many of the single units and/or clusters of them are still operational whilst others are boarded up. The potential of this site as a "Covent Garden-type" development/resurrection opportunity has been recognised and currently the word-on-the-street is that Northern Rock (now owned by Virgin Money Personal Financial Service Ltd) have purchased the rights to redevelop it.
