Recently there has been an increased amount of local press around both Altrincham Market & Leek Sunday Supplement markets and their respective benefits to the towns they are based in. How and they reinvigorating a town?

Leek Market, with its handmade bread, chutney, chocolates etc seems to be going from strength to strength – and long may this continue.
