Traders say they will leave the market if they are expected to bring and erect their own stalls.

Traders at an ancient market have said its future could be under threat if a council plan to get some of them to buy, bring and put up their own stalls goes ahead.

The council said the proposal was about making markets across the county cost effective, but said it would "work with traders and listen to their concerns".The thriving market has been operating for centuries He will have to bring his own stall if the change is brought in, something he said he cannot do as he will not be able to fit one in his vehicle, leaving him with no choice but to leave the market.

“We get a lot of coach trips in, so if they did not come all the businesses around here will suffer as well,” Mr Robinson said. North Yorkshire Council currently runs five other markets across the county including in Skipton and Northallerton.
