More about this scene
The eastern end of Bell Street is crossed by Knight Street, a wide road leading from Station Road to Fair Green where a market and fair have been held since the charter was granted in 1306. On 1 April, and later in October, children would have streamed along Knight Street from the school to buy treacle toffee or sherbet and liquorice straws from Mrs Cockerton. Today, the market which originally covered the Market Square and Fair Green has gone, but each year a few roundabouts and stalls still visit the town.
