Thumbnail for Market Place, Reading, looking north from a high vantage point to St. Laurence's Church, c. 1904. On the west side, Nos. 34 and 33 (J. S. Salmon and Son, tea merchants). On the east side, No. 12 (Morris and Davis, tailors, with awning over the pavement); Nos. 11, 10 and 9 (Sutton and Sons, Royal Seed Establishment); No. 7 ("Reading Mercury" newspaper office). Most of the Simeon obelisk is obscured by the cabmen's shelter.
