The Buttermarket, Middlegate, Newark.
Situated at the rear of the Town Hall, the Buttermarket was designed as a covered market hall and opened on October 13th 1884. The red brick front carries a stone carving of the borough arms with the words "Our chartered rights" underneath. The two main entrances are from Middlegate, on which I am standing and from the Market Place, at the other end of the market.
Over the past few years it had been in decline but recently lots of money spent to make it more appealing with new businesses opening. It is a listed building, that is it is Heritage Protected.
