Ormskirk first Artisan market was held yesterday.

They're planned on the first Sunday of each month until October offering visitors an exciting range of foods, clothing, jewellery, homeware, crafts and gifts.

Councillor David Evans, whose Cabinet responsibilities include the market, said: "I am really pleased this has been organised. This market was very popular when it was held in Burscough and we are working hard to support our local towns and high streets with these initiatives."

It's an additional market offer for Ormskirk and the surrounding area: the regular market days of Thursday and Saturday, and yesterday's first Artisan market, will ensure the town centre enjoys ten market days during August.

The next ones will take place on 6th September and 4th October, 11am to 4pm, Covid-19 restrictions permitting.
