Ironmonger Row

Well, as I mentioned for the West Orchard page, Ironmonger Row is now the road leading towards the West Orchard shopping mall, but here is where it used to be....

We're now on the other side of the street, a few yards farther down Cross Cheaping, viewing a rather sad Ironmonger Row, along with a pub simply known as the Board Vaults, awaiting demolition in 1935. With the mouse cursor over the image, we can see that it really was demolished in vain... unless, of course, the addition of the ubiquitous eating places (set farther back from the street, as can be seen) made it all worthwhile in your opinion!
Back to the 1935 view - just visible on the right, farther up the narrow lane, is the entrance to the Bull Ring at the bottom of Butcher Row.
