Description
The Market House is a small market house built in 1824 as a gift from John Grubb. It was restored in 1867 and again in the 20th century. The building is constructed of red brick and features coved plaster eaves, a hipped slate roof, and a timber clock turret. It is a square, two-storey structure with two semi-circular arches on each side at the ground floor and a central leaded window above. The east and west sides have large single light windows, while the north side has a smaller single light window set into the coving. The south, east, south, and west sides include a 19th-century verandah supported by wooden posts and topped with a hipped slate roof. A war memorial is located on the central south pier, and there is a staircase on the north side. The central turret features a square panelled base with a clock, a moulded cornice, and an arched bell-cote above. The bell-cote is topped with a tented lead roof and a weather vane.
