Haymarket Ice Rink

Last updated

Haymarket Ice Rink was a former ice skating and curling venue in Edinburgh, Scotland, which opened in 1912 [1] and closed in 1978. [2] [3]

It was constructed following the availability of land resulting from the relocation of James Swan's cattle market to Chesser, and was sited near to Haymarket railway station. [2] The venue was home to the Bellshill Curling Club, and when it closed, the club relocated to the new curling rink at Murrayfield Ice Rink. [4]
