Tips & Advice
- Wear warm layers for this outdoor street market, where visitors browse along the High Street rather than inside a single venue.
- Choose comfortable shoes because the market stretches along the High Street and browsing its stalls involves walking and standing.
- Allow time to visit the local shops as well as the market stalls, since both are part of the event.
- Expect the High Street to be closed to traffic, so plan to approach on foot rather than drive through the market.
- If visiting with children, leave time for the funfair and live entertainment alongside browsing the market stalls.
