The Market Hotel was situated on Lynn Street. This grade-II listed pub opened in 1857 and was renamed The New Market Inn c1991. It was used as an Indian restaurant following closure.

Despite the Market Inn’s Grade II listed status, Hartlepool Council is inviting tenders for the construction of 48 affordable rent homes on three development sites, including the Market Inn. Details not yet known, but presumably this means demolition of the Pub.
