Monument record 1160/383 - Site of 2, 4 and 6 Cattle Market Road

No 2 was built between 1928 and 1937 in an Art Deco style. It became the offices of Latimer and Crick, corn merchants. The former Cattle Market Cottages (nos 4 and 6 survived to 2006) were a row of late 19th century terraced houses. All were demolished in 2006.

{1} Unusual terraced housing (for Northamptonshire) with shouldered doors and windows and facade of pale cream limestone with remainder being of brick. The history of these structures may be associated with the industrial development of the area and as such may be worthy of further research.

{2} Building recording prior to demolition. Prior to recording the properties had been gutted by fire, so only a brief photographic record of the exterior could be carried out.
