Corn exchange




Corn exchange
The Corn Exchange was designed by Cuthbert Brodrick an architect from the 18th centaury. He proposed a spherical building made of stone with a combination of glass and wood roof that with its intricate craftsmanship slightly resembles the bow of a ship. From the exterior to the interior the craftsmanship is beautiful and detailed. The exterior of the building is made from carved stone exposing raised textures calls and beautiful masonry surrounding the roof. The history of the corn exchange was to hold traders from the agricultural industries.
