Market Hall. Opened in 1835 but badly bomb damaged in WW2. It returned to post war use with walls repaired but without a roof. A locally remembered feature was a sea mine, painted red, placed at the back entrance steps. The building was demolished circa 1959 - 60 for the major Bullring redevelopment.

Statue of Horatio Nelson A bronze statue by Richard Westmacott installed 1809. In 1961, during the first Bullring redevelopment, it was relocated but in the later Bullring redevelopment (2000 - 2005) it was returned to near its original position overlooking St Martins church.
