Warwick, UK, Markets and Farmer's Markets

There has been a market in Warwick Square for a long time, I would guess since 17th century at least. Recently a lot of events are held there including a successful Thai Festival and programs from Warwick's folk festival.The is seating outside from two pubs and that adds to the attraction. Warwick has become known for having a good collection of select eateries, many of which are close to the town center.

The Saturday Market seemed to go through a bad patch but it is now thriving. Tradespeople set up early (before 6am) and some are doing business by 7am. I can confirm how friendly they are. Meat, fish, vegetable, plant, cheese, pies , fruit etc etc are available. There are also plenty of hardwares and clothes available.

The Town Square is only a few minutes walk from Warwick Castle, one of the country's biggest tourist attractions and the nearby St Nicholas Park by the River Avon. The view of the Castle from the Avon Bridge must be one of the most photographed things anywhere and I am still looking for the perfect shot. I was pleased with my last good one:



The Farmer's Market scheduled has been subject to change. It now has space near the Shire Hall alongside the regular market on some Saturdays. It runs from May through the summer when there is a fifth Saturday, third Fridays of month as before and maybe on special occasions like the recent St George's Day. Please check elsewhere to confirm dates.
