Fabulous Face Lift

Over the next few months the market will be getting a fabulous face lift. By spring we will have our own ATM and modern toilets, with disabled and baby changing facilities all taken care of by a concierge.
New pavilions for the food stalls are being built and there are major repairs and refurbishments being made to the market structure. Rest assured the market will NOT close whilst these works are taking place.

 

Square Pie's December's Christmas pie

...will be filled with a full roast dinner including turkey, vegetables and chipolata sausages.

Carrington and Partners

...the City Fringe property specialist based in the market has hot news: 10 live/work units are just about to be released on Quaker St. - the developers are looking for a quick sale.
