Fremantle Markets
The Fremantle Markets are a public market located on the corner of South Terrace and Henderson Street, Fremantle, Western Australia.
Built in 1897, the markets house over 150 shops for craftspeople, fashion designers, and merchants in the historic Hall, and fresh food producers, vegetable growers and food retailers in The Yard. The Markets are typically open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and are a popular Fremantle tourist destination considered ''"a Fremantle institution"''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://register.heritage.wa.gov.au/PDF_Files/F%20Reg/fremantle%20markets%20(P).PDF )〕
== History ==
Designed in the Federation Romanesque style, the architects were Joseph Herbert Eales〔J. H. Eales was a Victorian architect who later redesigned (parts of the interior ) of the Weld Club.〕 and Charles Oldham.〔Often working in partnership with Alfred Cox, Charles Lancelot Oldham was later responsible for such buildings as the (P&O Building in Phillimore St, Fremantle ), (Wellington Buildings ) on the corner of William and Wellington Streets, Perth, the (former Town Hall ) in Geraldton, the (Murchison Club Hotel ) in Cue, and buildings at (151-165 Beaufort Street ), (18 & 20 Howard Street ), and (452-460 William Street ) in Perth. Oldham died in 1920, but his company exists to this day as Oldham Boas Ednie-Brown Pty Ltd.〕 The foundation stone was laid by Premier of Western Australia Sir John Forrest on 6 November 1897, and the principal construction was carried out between 1898 and 1902 at a cost of £8268.〔 The interior walls are mainly rough washed limestone, with a high iron roof supported by timber columns. The perimeter of the markets is lined with small shops, and the main entry to the market is through ornate stone arches on the Henderson St and Market Street frontages.
The buildings functioned as a wholesale food and produce market until the 1950s, when this was taken over by the Perth Markets on Wellington Street. The original verandahs were demolished, and the main body of the market buildings was used as a packing and distribution centre until the early 1970s. The buildings then sat vacant until they were restored by the Fremantle City Council in 1975 using funding from the National Estate grants program, and reopened on 31 October 1975. While the basic structure was retained, the internal layout was altered to accommodate permanent retail stalls, a bar was built in one corner, and the verandahs were replaced. An area known as Farmer's Lane was established to the north of the main market hall, which housed temporary fruit and vegetables stalls covered with tarpaulins and umbrellas.〔(This image ) shows the service yard at the rear of the markets before the establishment of Farmer's Lane.〕 Part of this area was damaged by fire in May 1992, prompting the building of a new Fruit and Vegetable Hall using tin and timber recycled from the Leach Highway wool stores. This extension won a commendation from the Royal Australian Institute of Architects in 1993, and the Fremantle Markets were permanently entered on the Register of Heritage Places in November of that year.〔
