GUILDHALL SQUARE 1939 This view shows the wide- open space of the Guildhall Square as it was. The famous Sussex Hotel stands to the left, on the corner of Greetham Street. In the centre of the picture is the tram shelter.
A tall lamppost sits in the centre of a large open square. Faint tramline wires criss-cross the sky above, and below are a circus of buildings skirting the edge of the square.
