Market Street, Aberdeen, Looking Up

A George Washington Wilson photograph titled Market Street, Aberdeen, Looking Up and numbered 3863.

Market Street, built around 1840, is shown here at its junction with Guild Street and Trinity Quay.

The small building on the left hand corner of Guild Street was replaced by a large block that contained the Schooner (originally Empire) Bar.

Next to it, out of shot on the left, was the Alhambra Theatre. The building on the right of the junction was a Post Office and later a Labour Exchange.

The premises of Alexander Wyness, butcher, can be seen at 62 Market Street. A coal depot is partially visible further along the street.
