Aberystwyth Corn and General Market Co. Records,

Papers of the Aberystwyth Corn and General Market Co. covering the whole period of its existence, 1870-1922, including papers relating to the construction of the two market halls.

The Aberystwyth Corn and General Market Co. was established in 1870, mainly to build a market hall. The Hall was built in the early 1870s.

In 1922, the company went into voluntary liquidation, with George Fossett Roberts acting as liquidator.
