The Old Shambles, Kendal
The Old Shambles, Kendal, Cumbria.
The Old Shambles, in a yard behind The Fleece Inn, was built in 1779 to house the town's butchers shops. Animals were slaughtered in the yard and the blood and offal is said to have caused such a problem due to poor drainage, that the shops were closed down and moved to the New Shambles. The large building at the head of the Old Shambles was once an inn called The Butcher’s Arms, and it later became a dye works.
