I dont ever have time to go to the market, but other half goes in there for some things, except when she visits her parents, then its bury market.

Re: Does anyone still shop at Accrington Market?..
When my children were babies I used to go to the baby stall. I got my pram, grobags and a few other bits from there.
I use a butcher in Ossy for all my meat but go to Accy market for fruit and veg.

The outside market is not a patch on what it was. It's just too cramped and awkward and when people stop for a natter you can't get at the stalls.

Re: Does anyone still shop at Accrington Market?..
I generally buy something as I pass thru, muffins and a cracking piece of cake this week. I get bird seed from the pet stall. I sometimes pick up a second hand book when I’m in reading mode.

Re: Does anyone still shop at Accrington Market?..
I usually shop in the Market Hall once or twice a week.
I can't remember the last time I bought something from the outside market, mainly because it's so poor, and a shadow of it's former self, thanks to the 'brains' at the council.
