More about this scene
The Market was newly-opened in the year of this photograph. It was designed by the local firm Leeming and Leeming of Northgate, with a lofty roof supported by richly-decorated ironwork. The official opening was conducted by the Duke and Duchess of York, whose arrival was met by a 21-gun salute. On the same day, they lunched at Belle Vue before opening the new Infirmary building in Free School Lane.
