Abstract
This paper addresses changes at Exmouth Market during the 1990s and explores how the street, generally run-down at the start of the decade, became one of the trendiest in Clerkenwell. It focuses on the role of planning changes and the ways in which they added to the stock of cultural capital. This took the form of restaurants and a rejuvenated vision for the street that built both upon its history and its proximity to Sadler's Wells and the Barbican. However, within this new vision of Exmouth Market, more long term and poorer residents were often by-passed in decision-making processes. The paper argues that any conclusion about the 'success' at Exmouth Market therefore needs much qualification.
