Plaque inscription...

Old Fish Market - This was the first purpose-built harbourside fish market. It was built on a newly-reclaimed extension to the 16th century Southside or Barbican Quay.

The market opened in 1896 and remained in use until 1995 when a new fish market was opened on the opposite side of the harbour.

Because of its design many people think this building was a railway station. It was designed by the chief Engineer of the Great Western Railway and although a railway was proposed, it never got this far.
