London’s Smithfield Market at risk of closure after more than 800 years
London’s historic Smithfield meat market is at risk of being closed for good at a vote in the City of London. The City of London Corporation, which owns and operates the site, has previously planned to relocate the market and Billingsgate fish market to a new £1 billion development in Dagenham.
London’s historic Smithfield and Billingsgate markets are closing for good
The City of London Corporation has voted to withdraw its support for Smithfield meat market in Farringdon, and Billingsgate fish market in Canary Wharf, meaning they could both be gone within four years. Traders have been offered compensation and the corporation has said it will help them find new premises to operate on.
