BEDFORD CIRCUS was one of the finest pieces of Georgian town-planning in England. The idea for Bedford Circus started with Robert Stribling, a speculative architect/builder who, in 1773, who began the construction of 14 townhouses on the site of John Russell's Bedford House, itself a remnant of a '''Dominican Friary''' which had been on the same location from the 13th century until it was dissolved in 1538 during the Reformation. A '''chapelry''' was created for the inhabitants of the circus. It came to an end beginning in the early hours of 04 May 1942 when German bombs set light to much of Exeter's historic centre.<ref>Demolition Exeter ''[http://demolition-exeter.blogspot.com/2010/09/destruction-of-bedford-circus.html A Century of Destruction of a Cathedral City]''online blog Date Accessed: 2 July 2013</ref> | |||
