The former Corn Exchange in Bury St Edmunds is today a Wetherspoons pub. The building which is Grade I listed was designed by Ellis & Woodward and built at a cost of £7,000. It opened for business in July 1862. In 1969 a floor was inserted in the hall and the ground floor became shops. Today the upper floor is a Wetherspoons pub.
