The building on the left is the one-time Abingdon town hall, which was also Berkshire County Hall prior to local government reorganisation in 1972 (Abingdon is now in Oxfordshire), and is now in use as a museum. The square to the right is used as a market on Mondays, with some stalls also on Saturdays. You can see the camera moved a little at the start of this long exposure, but you get the idea...
