Cornmarket, Derby - then and now

This pre-war view (above) of the Corn Market looking towards the Market Place was taken at the junction with St James’ Street.

There is a policeman on point duty to the left and the Kardomah cafe sign can be seen on the right, where Little Frankie’s is today.

Just off the picture, next to Lock-Up Yard on the right, was a restaurant, possibly the Cavendish.

Today (right), the whole area is pedestrianised and the premises have changed hands but, otherwise, the buildings are essentially the same.
