Leadenhall Market is one of London鈥檚 most distinctive historic shopping arcades, occupying a site that has hosted markets since the Middle Ages in the heart of the City of London. The present iron-and-glass structure dates mainly from the late 19th century and was designed by architect Horace Jones, combining ornate painted metalwork, decorative roofs and narrow covered passages. Its location among modern office towers creates a striking contrast between Victorian commercial architecture and the contemporary financial district surrounding it.
