A Market built in 1828 by Alexander Beara. It was a one storey building built of stone rubble with a slate roof. It was arranged as a (previously) covered yard with stalls around the four sides and down the middle. The entrance was via two doors at the west end, which had recessed elliptical arches with a roundel between them. Displayed on this roundel were the words: 'MARKET PLACE 1928 A.B'. The initials A.B were said to stand for the original owner Alexander Beara. The stalls had slate roofs carried on brick piers from which curved wood brackets rose to the overhanging eaves. The centre range was supported by iron columns. The building was in poor condition when visited by RCHME (Royal Commission on Historical Monuments of England) Site Inspectors in February 1961.
