What is recorded here

This blue commemorative plaque records: The Butter And Fish Market. Here stood The Butter And Fish Market, a two storey building of archaic form dating from 1791. After 1900 the ground floor became a municipal dairy and the upper floor a store for council records. Following its demolition in 1951 the site served as a Second World War memorial which was later moved to The Salutation Square. Recorded plaque organisation: Haverfordwest Civic Society, Haverfordwest Town Council.
The Butter And Fish Market, established in 1791, served as a vital commercial hub for dairy and seafood products in Haverford West until its demolition in 1951; subsequently, the site commemorated local sacrifices during World War II.
