The Corn Exchange is on your left.
The Corn Exchange opened for trade in June 1862 and is now a Grade II listed building. On the 25th July 1944 the Glen Miller band played a concert at the Corn Exchange for the 101st Airborne and the people of Newbury and the venue was packed. The evening was so well attended that loudspeakers were set up in the Market Place for people waiting outside.
Continue into Cheap Street.
