Corn exchange
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For the defunct US bank, see Corn Exchange Bank
A corn exchange was a building where people came to trade corn and other cereals. Such trade was common in the United Kingdom in the 19th century but as the trade died out in the 20th century many such buildings were used for other purposes. Several have since become listed buildings.
