Scope and Content Glasgow Fruit Market, Nos 60-106 Candleriggs, Glasgow This complex was founded in 1817 as the Bazaar, by James Cleland, to house the city's 'green' and cheese markets. It was subsequently greatly enlarged and reconstructed in 1852-3 and again in 1907, to become the city's fruit and vegetable market. This shows the interior of the extension built in 1907 to designs by A B McDonald. The glazed roof is supported on light steel trusses, and cast iron columns, with the two-storeyed offices of individual merchants round the walls. Most merchants also had warehouses in the streets round the market. This market closed in 1968, when a new fruit market was opened at Balornock, where road access is much easier. After a period of disuse the old market was converted to house a range of leisure and retail uses. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
