Fitzalan Square received a facelift during the summer of 2003. The Edward VII statue was cleaned, protected from pigeons, and lights added to illuminate it at night. New sandstone paving and steel benches were installed, the trees were pruned back and improved street lighting put in. The square contains two betting shops from national chains, a few insurance companies, amusement arcade and a small newsagents. In the inner part of the square there is also a fast food hut and a small police cabin. Sheffield's Head Post Office operated in the square for almost ninety years. Built in 1910 as an addition to the 1897 post office building on Flat Street, it closed in 1999.
