Talk:Leeds Kirkgate Market

Largest covered market in Europe?
I can find no source for the claim that Kirkgate is the largest covered market in Europe. The BBC believe it to be Leicester:. There are also claims for a market in Holland and one in Valencia in Spain. Please don't change the text in this article again without sources. PamD 00:08, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
