Ashton Market


(Click photo for larger version. Press Back button to return here.)

Since the weather has gone a little damp and dreary I have dug out a nice sunny image of Ashton's market ground.

This view looks across towards the Town Hall from the pedestrianised Warrington Street. I remember when cars and buses ran along Warrington Street and there was a car parking area alongside the market. It is a more pleasant environment nowadays!

"Ashton Market" is my contribution to this week's "My World" feature. Please check out the other blogs participating in this week's My World.

  1. Looks like a colorful place for people to stroll and enjoy the market wares.

  2. Oh yes, I agree. Much more pleasant with these surroundings. I love the colours of the coverings for the stalls. Is that old-fashioned style canopy on the left for a merry-go-round?

  3. Joining MyWorld for the first time.

    Outdoor markets are great to visit on sunny days.

  5. That's a nice cheery and bright picture. I've given up on our summer!

  6. I remember when traffic went along the front of the Town Hall
