The multi-million pound project to create a new home for Oldham’s Tommyfield Market is nearing completion. The Manchester Evening News received a sneak preview as the new venue off Yorkshire Street enters its final phase of construction.

But across the venue’s 450k square metres, visitors will also find a banquet hall and performance space, three bars and a publicly accessible local history archive. These will be surrounded on the ground floor by a food court and bar, leading to a staircase to the lower floor. The basement will house Oldham’s local studies archives, which will be fully accessible to the public for the first time in the council’s history.

The relocation of Tommyfield Market, along with the completed redesign of Spindles, were partly funded through £24.5m of the government’s Towns Fund.
