Bury Market

It will cost an estimated £6m to repair the crumbling concrete roof of the indoor hall

Ask people what Bury is famous for and a large proportion will instantly say 'the market'.

The options include refurbishing the hall, building a new one or developing a ‘Preston style’ covered market.
