More about this scene
From 1833 to 1971 this old market site near the parish church served the town well with fresh produce from across Yorkshire. But when Keighley saw the developments in neighbouring towns, it demanded a more modern market. The old premises were swept away in 1971 and a new hall was incorporated into the modern shopping precinct. It was not always hard work here - the market workers frequently enjoyed barrel-rolling and basket-stacking contests.
