Opposite the Co-op, down from where Suggs Sports shop was in the 70's, Castle Green, Hen & Chickens maybe ? Any help appreciated. Also any pictures of that area requested, if it still exists ....

I know that the building across from the Hen and Chicks is the old courts building but can anyone one tell me what the building below the pub (attached) is or was in the last photo ..... its a similar style to the courts building.
