Leadenhall Market
Leadenhall Market is a buzzy, beautiful and airy market in the heart of the City of London, that boasts a unique selection of boutique shops, restaurants and bars. It is a hidden gem – both outdoors and covered – with a rich history dating back to Roman London. The current stunning wrought iron and glass architecture was built in 1881, and has featured in films ranging from Harry Potter to Tomb Raider.
