These new images show what Rawtenstall Market look like under a multi-million pound regeneration as plans to turn it into a 'vibrant social hub' get council backing.
The refurbishment aims to transform the historic building – first opened in 1906 – into a 'well-designed and forward-thinking visitor destination' using the main market building as an indoor food hall serving hot and cold foods. There will be eight new hot food outlets while the outside cabins will focus on retail and artisan goods.Plans also show flexible indoor and outdoor spaces for day-to-day trading, community events and seasonal occasions.
A council spokesperson said: "The project is all about bringing the market and surrounding area up to modern-day standards and the market traders have been involved in the evolution of the design. The purpose is to address existing challenges such as inadequate facilities, poor thermal performance, persistent leakage issues, poor ventilation, inconsistent stall sizes and unclear circulation routes which hinder the user experience.
Gareth said: "I have been visiting Rawtenstall Market since I was a child so I obviously have a vested interest in the project not only professionally but as a regular user. So, I want to make the market a success not only for now but for generations in the future.
