Iveagh Markets

MonumentLocal favourite

Lord Iveagh's 1906 market halls, built for street traders the Guinness slum clearances displaced, closed in the 1990s and have stood empty since. Liberties traders still campaign to reopen them; the council began a second phase of emergency roof works in January 2026.
