Haymarket Ice Rink

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]
