The historic market has new stalls from Italy, new paving, new lighting and new trees.

Cries of "bunch of bananas a pound" will be heard again on Friday as a historic market returns to its home.

Over the years, it hosted everything from war fundraisers to music festivals and even temporary summer beaches. To address the situation, plans for major improvements to the market were drawn up alongside projects in other parts of the town centre, and a ringfenced government grant was secured.Work started on transforming Market Square in February 2023
