Alnwick
Market Place is where you'll find both the Town Hall and Northumberland
Hall, now home to the Tourist Information Office. The Market Place has played
a vital role throughout the history of the area and today continues to thrive
as a focal point for the community, with markets each Thursday and Saturday.
On
the last Friday of each month the Farmers' Market still provides an opportunity
to buy local produce, which naturally finds its way onto the breakfast
table at Bailiffgate Bed & Breakfast.
The Market Cross (right) is medieval
and therefore believed to have been erected in the period 1066-1540. The
cross-head was replaced in the 19th Century.
