Borough Market sits at the southern end of London Bridge, a location that has served as a center of commerce for nearly one thousand years. In the medieval era, the area was so congested with trade that women selling produce from baskets were prohibited from sitting down, as they were required to keep moving through the crowded streets to avoid blocking the path of travelers. This history of intensity and movement defined the site long before it became the structured food destination you see today.
