Nottingham - NG1 (Sneinton)
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.

Nottingham - NG1 (Sneinton)
The colour scheme adopted along this stretch of enclosed market stalls on "Avenue E" suggests that these units are being rented and used by a single stall-holder whereas in other avenues observers will notice multiple single stalls and smaller clusters of stall-holdings. However, in any single avenue some of the stalls can be seen 'boarded up' whilst others are evidently very obviously in use. Inaugurated in 1900 & updated in 1938 these sheds were designed to accommodate the wholesale fruit and vegetable market that previously functioned in Nottingham's Market Square. However, following the transfer of this 'perishables' market to Lenton, retailers have been permitted to rent these sheds and stalls instead.

Sneinton Market: renovation of Avenue C
The former wholesale fruit and vegetable market is being redeveloped as part of a "Creative Quarter". “Work has begun on the redevelopment of Sneinton Market. As an important part of the city's heritage, the work at the market aims to improve the area and reinvigorate the site as a focal point for Nottingham's emerging creative sector. Units on the site are being refurbished into workshops and studios for use by creative enterprises.” (Nottingham City Council website). The existing units on Avenues A to C will have new roofs and shop fronts.
The Nottingham Post reported that “Traders are hopeful that the £3.85 million redevelopment of Sneinton Market will transform it into the city’s own Covent Garden.”
