The rectangular animal pound stood on this site. The original pound was demolished in 1931 but rebuilt for the sake of nostalgia in 1977. This one too was demolished when the developers moved in and built Bloomsbury Close and Oulton Court residential home, but the site preserved by agreement. Image
