Default Re: Old Burnley Market

The markets were great back in those days. What we have now isn't a patch on how it used to be - mind you Burnley is a bit better than Accrington's pathetic excuse for an outdoor market. I feel so sorry for the stall holders. They are so cramped together that people can't wander past and linger looking at the goods, you create a roadblock if you have people buying from stalls opposite each other. And as for the ones on the outer edge they just get all the rain and snow on them as there is no protection from the elements. The roof is woefully inadequate. It's pathetic.
