A nostalgic 9 minute walk around
the old market is now on video - just some photographs set to original music, the photos were taken in 2008 -2009 prior to
the demolition. You may be interested.
Just go to this link for the blog.

The Market dates back to Roman Times. As long as there has been a Town here, people have met
to trade. The first recorded Charter was granted by Henry the second in 1180. This was the right to hold Fairs and Markets
in the Town. The Charter was renewed by successive Monarchs.
This is the best place in which to see a collection of
crafts under one roof and as there are also Home Produce Stalls, Antiques, Cafes, Barbers, Engraver and all sorts of
other goods on display, it is little wonder that the Provision Market is well known throughout the whole of South Wales..
