Over the centuries, the market has only grown in prominence and character, and today is a celebrated tourist attraction as well.

Earlier known as Blynesgate, it was originally a general market selling coal, salt, corn, wine, pottery and other miscellaneous items. In this chaotic fish market one can find a variety of fresh catch brought from Aberdeen and Cornwall. Apart from the wide variety of fresh by vapour trail fish available, the market also has poultry vendors, sundry traders and some restaurants. Escorted tours to the market place could be arranged with prior notice. Here's a little trivia; the word 'Billingsgate' became synonymous with crude and vulgar language because of the coarse language used by the fisher folk there. +44 20 7987 1118 www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/ billingsgatemarket@cityofl Trafalgar Way, Poplar, business/wholesale-food- ondon.gov.uk London markets/billingsgate/Page s/default.aspx JOIN US AT: cityseeker.com TERMS & CONDITIONS | PRIVACY POLICY | API | CONTACT US | Copyright (C) 2021 CITYSEEKER Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

  • June 6-8, 2019 London, Uk CONFERENCE INTERNATIONAL
    INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE london, uk JunE 6-8, 2019 WELCOME As we prepared for the 9th International Public Markets Conference four years ago, Project for Public Spaces decided to frame the event around one big question: What if we challenged each of our communities to become a “market city” – a community with a robust network of markets and a citywide strategy to support them, like the host city of Barcelona itself? This year, for the 10th edition of this conference, I am excited to announce the launch of a Market Cities Initiative here at Project for Public Spaces, which Phil Myrick will build upon our decades of planning, research, education, and advocacy CEO for public markets. This initiative will help cities around the world scale up Project for the impact of their market systems through regional strategy, policy, and Public Spaces governance. We could not ask for a better place in which to announce this initiative than London, a city of nearly 300 markets, some with 1,000 years of history; a city that today, under the leadership of the Mayor of London, is pursuing bold new research and governance efforts to support their many markets. So welcome, market champions, to one of the world’s great market cities! I’m delighted to co-host the 10th International Public Markets Conference with Project for Public Spaces, at a time when London’s markets are booming. There are now almost 300 street and covered markets in the city offering an astonishing range of goods. This event shines a spotlight on the sheer breadth of what our markets offer.
