| All set to open on Friday - Top Town's indoor market |
GRIMSBY'S Top Town indoor market is due to reopen this Friday, May 16, in a new temporary location within Freshney Place.
A unit close to Primark, at the Riverhead end of the mall, , will accommodate traders previously based at the old market hall which is currently being demolished to pave the way for a cinema-and-leisure scheme.
The temporary market is a space for traders to continue operating throughout redevelopment while also supporting footfall within Freshney Place.
Market traders offer a wide variety of products including fresh produce, jewellery, key cutting services, books, collectables, flowers as well as fashion.
The traders who have moved across to the temporary space are:
* Birketts Butchers
* Black Cat Books
* Carl’s Meats
* Cobblers & Keys
* Girlie Gear
* Graham Thompson Jewellers
* K&P Collectables
* Temple Ranch Clothing
* The Card and Party Box
* The Veg Stall (incorporating New Haven eggs)
* Upsa Daisy florists (Friday and Saturday only)
Opening hours for Top Town Market are the same as they were in the previous location, 9am to 4pm, four days a week: Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
Enthuses the leader of North East Lincolnshire Council, Cllr Philip Jackson: "It looks fantastic!
"Friday is likely to be a really busy day for everyone because there will be the Farmers’ Market in Riverhead Square on the same day."
Equally upbeat is the director of Freshney Place, Amanda Austin, who says: "We are delighted to host the market during this transitional period and are looking forward to welcoming their customers.
This move highlights Freshney Place’s role as a cornerstone of the town’s regeneration - not only a place to shop and meet friends, but a hub of community life."
