The Market House

Originally used to host the town’s Market Traders, the building fell into disrepair as the markets petered out. Extensive renovation of The Market House was completed early in 2014 and this iconic building now offers internal and external areas to let for community and commercial events.

In front of The Undercroft is the cobbled area which is the focus of a Tuesday street market every week throughout the year.

The Market House has been a major local meeting place for over 150 years, a focus for community events and home to the Town Council, Tourist & Community Information Point and a fascinating Museum.

The townspeople are very proud of this development and improvement to such an historic building and welcome exhibitors, performers, committees and visitors from far and wide to share their enthusiasm.
