Despite the national decline this Lancashire market is bucking the trend

Before the advent of supermarkets in the 1950s most families did a 'big shop' at their local markets.

Rawtenstall Market is one example of how a different approach to the traditional format can turn things around. The market has been operated by PLAY Market Management through a deal with site owner Rossendale Council but last month the company announced it was to step back. "It's all about bringing new people in. We just want to create a space where there is something for everyone.

Although opinions about the renovation of Rawtenstall Market are mixed - some disagree with moving the food stalls indoors while others object to a general bar instead of allowing stall-holders to continue selling alcohol - the investment is welcome and a sign of the council's confidence in its potential.

For some of the newer tenants, like Turkish Kadir Aktay, the opportunity to bring something different to the market - his food stall Amphora Kitchen - has allowed him to embark on a new career.
