| Research Abstract |
In liverpool,the first municipal markethall, St. John's market was established in 1822. As the working class increased in population in northern industrial cities, they needed a different type of daily necessaries market.
That is,in the damp,filthy atmosphere of the industrial north,together with working hours which left most of the population only the night time for shopping, the need for a completely covered, gas-lit market hall was a more pressing priority than in the rural market town.
In the 1840s and after, wholesale markets were established separately. In the 1930's, Liverpool municipal corporation managed twelve markets, eight of which had been established in the 19th century, and only four of which were established in the 20th century. Now we can say that Liverpool built up the foundation of the municipal markets in the latter half of 19th century.
I have inquired into the markets of England in 1920s. A main source material is Report on Markets and Fairs in England and Wales, Part I: General Review, edited by Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries of Great Gritain in 1927. The Report says that the wholesale markets of that time have a good function. But later,after the World War II, in 1960s, with the advance of "the revolution of distribution", for examples,shopping centre and hypermarkets,the wholesale markets in the consumer cities have been obliged to cope with the situation.
