The Beast Market
The Beast Market in Wrexham Regis, Wrexham, Denbighshire, existed from the 15th century, and was the site for regular cattle markets and the March Fair. It later became known as St George’s Crescent.
Wrexham’s March Fair at the Beast Market was the climax of the business year. Eventually some traders built their own market halls in the town. Manchester traders sold textiles in Manchester Square and Birmingham traders sold hardware in Birmingham Square, both off Henblas Street, while the Yorkshire dealers operated from a square near Tuttle Street.
