Market Life

A Memory of Preston.

My parents had a baby Stall on Preston Market when I was 11 years old. Mum stood Mondays and Wednesdays, and we went as a family on Saturdays when we were on the Flag market (corner top left hand stall near the Harris Art Gallery). It was freezing cold on that corner !! Everyone who was on the markets helped one another, there was a wonderful cameraderie.
