St. Nicholas Market
The market was established in 1743. Its classical façade was built by Samuel Glascodine, with John Wood the Elder. Four principal streets meet at the top of the High Street. These are High Street, Corn Street, Wine Street and Broad Street. Parallel to the market entrance stand the ‘nails’. Four bronze nails or tables are located outside the exchange on Corn Street, probably modelled after mobile tables that were taken to trade fairs and markets.
