MEM22375 - Market buildings, Market Street, Lynton (Building)

Market Buildings, probably late 19th century, single-storey and stone-built with raised gables capped by ball finials and a Cornish slate roof. A circular date-stone records the year 2000 restoration. The timber casement windows have fixed upper lights with small panes. [1] The site is a mixture of buildings in various orientations on the Lynton Tithe Map and the 1st Edition Ordnance Survey map. It is possible that some of these buildings may have been incorporated into the present structure (such as in the frontage facing Queen Street), or they may all have been demolished. [2,3] The buildings are shown in a much larger form, extending to the south, on the 2nd Edition Ordnance Survey map. Some of these buildings may have been incorporated into the adjacent public house (MDE20984). [4]
