The Ministère de la Culture's notice

La halle était bâtie sur plan carré. Neuf gros piliers ronds à base cubique, réalisés en maçonnerie de moellons enduite, supportaient une charpente, laquelle supportait la couverture en tuile canal. La halle a été détruite vraisemblablement en septembre 1976.

The market hall was built on a square plan. Nine large round pillars with cubic bases, constructed of rubble stone masonry with render, supported a roof structure, which supported the roof covering of canal tile. The hall was destroyed presumably in September 1976.
