Having passed by many times without noticing it, seeing this was a surprise. It was the coloured coat of arms that caught the eye. The stone on the left records that these were the Victoria Lane gates from the old Market Hall, which was built in 1878 and demolished in 1970. The gates were erected here in 1971, probably because they were 'rescued' by the owners of Shaw's Pickles.
