HBM Freeman's Common Leicester 3rd September 2024

The Victorian cattle market was located at Freeman's Common until 1990 & this Grade II listed building, now the Counting House pub, was the market refreshment rooms.

The redevelopment of the area into a retail park & cinema complex took place in the mid-90s and involved a new road lay-out with multiple traffic lights and one-way systems.

The clock tower is a fine feature & would have been important to know the time when it was a market but sadly today the clock is not functioning.

HBM to everyone. Enjoy the day.
