Cattle Market

Photograph at the Cattle Market plaque

The Cattle Market You are standing in the centre of Worcester's 19th century cattle market. The buying and selling of livestock took place within the city for centuries, until 1838 when a purpose-built market was constructed here on the edge of the town and continued in operation for 160 years. In the middle of the market stood the auctioneers' offices, an octagonal brick building with a clock tower.
