When the Streets Ran With Blood: Butchers, Slaughterhouses & More 1710-1914

‘When the Streets Ran with Blood’ tells the story of butchers, cattle markets and slaughter houses from the 18th century to the present day, going back to the days when the Leeds butchers’ Shambles was in Briggate, the Cattle Market was on the site of Kirkgate Market, and the site of today’s Victoria Quarter was occupied by seven large slaughter houses.
