Taken on the day it opened to the public, shoppers can be seen bustling around the market stalls, eagerly selecting their fresh seafood. On 14th November 1963, a significant moment in Birmingham's history unfolded as Alderman Dr. Louis Glass, JP, the Lord Mayor of Birmingham at that time, inaugurated the new retail market at Bull Ring.
