A SERIES of one off markets will come to Wombwell High Street this year.
Markets based around Easter, home and garden, fashion and Christmas are all planned by the Wombwell Ward Alliance alongside Barnsley Council markets officers.
Coun Robert Frost, chair of the alliance, said: "The one off markets will be on Wednesdays so as not to disrupt the normal markets.
"It is all about getting more people into Wombwell, and in turn they will spend more time on the High Street in the shops and cafes."
The first of the new markets will be held on April 1, with the theme of Easter and Craft.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
