Nice to hear , a local politician leading by example and encouraging the folks to support local traders and small businesses and help keep money in the town

Leader of the council Peter Britcliffe said: “Unfortunately, the weather has had an effect on market trading.
“The two busiest days for the town centre happened after the thaw on Tuesday and Wednesday.
“But sadly these were the days we had agreed with traders in advance to close the market.
“Now and over the next few weeks will be the time when they will benefit the most.”

Well its a false un so hopefully they'll re-use it anyway Jaysay, it does look nice i have to say, but on the whole i'd prefer a Stall! Whats betting when its taken down it'll be on a Weds, then the folks taking it down can be "counted" as customers!!
