Great pictures and there was a thread about AB Row recently and the picture here shows the old market hall that was in the triangle there. A nice piece in the puzzle. Funny how a picture can sometimes remind about things. The one showing the baths with the pay booths reminded me about friday nights there...and the little soap...and hard small towels. Geesh.
The picture with the old AB market is a gem. I think it was posted by Phil before the errasure. Might be hard to find another one.
