Description: | Undated.
This was the third white cloth hall to be built in Leeds. It was designed by William Johnson and cost ?4,000, opening in 1776. Tuesday and Saturdays were the meeting days for the West Kiding Clothiers, 1,210 stalls were provided for them to trade. The cupola on the hall had come from the previous cloth hall. In 1869, the new railway was found to be too close and intrusive, this building was abandoned, new facilities being provided on King Street. Now renovated and used as a restaurant. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | White Cloth Hall Assembly Rooms Assembly Street | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
