Queen Street saleyards; cattle sale.

Details

PhotographerLeo MorelDescriptionThe saleyards were on the south side of Queen Street, backing onto the Main Street shops.

The July 12, 1967 'Leader' reprinted the January 12, 1950 'Upper Hutt Times' history of the saleyards' closure.

This view is from Queen Street, looking south-east.
In spite of years of wrangling, Dalgety's had been entitled to a limited number of sales up to March 31, 1948; they may then have moved to Air Force land at Mangaroa; the old saleyards were allocated to car parking in May 1949.
The crowd was there to see the sale, which had been banned by the city council.Date Taken15th January 1948Geotag^[1]
