| **8** Smithfield Meat Market has been operating almost constantly for over **800 years**. In the Middle Ages, Smithfield was a wide grassy space, with access to grazing and water from the River Fleet. Until 1855 cattle, sheep and horses were brought into Smithfield to be sold or slaughtered. In June 1855 the live market was closed due to complaints about the chaos and mess caused by driving live cattle to what was now central London. After 1886, cattle were slaughtered elsewhere and the meat brought to the newly-erected Smithfield Meat Market by train. | **8** Smithfield Meat Market has been operating almost constantly for over **800 years**.
