St James' Place (1884)

St James' Place was an open square, formerly Broad Court, which held a daily market that sold fruits of various kinds. It was at the top of Creechurch Lane.

The fruit of the orange tree was the most predominant and therefore the locals gave this market the name of 'Orange Market'.
