2 Market Place is a Grade II listed building in the English market town of Poulton-le-Fylde, Lancashire. Built in the late 17th or early 18th century, it stands immediately to the south of St Chad's Church, itself Grade II* listed and dating to the 17th century, in the northeastern corner of Market Place.[1] It was formerly a custom house, later a residence.[2]

It is constructed of rendered brick with a slate roof. It is built on two storeys and originally had three bays. In the loft there is visible heavy timber framing including a roof truss between the second and third bays. The building now functions as a shop.[1]

The building's southern facade forms part of the entrance to the narrow The Mews alley of shops and businesses which connects to Chapel Street.
