A monthly farmers market in Tameside has been ranked among the best in the UK, according to the Sunday Times. Ashton Farmers' Market takes place on the last Sunday of the month outside the historic market hall on Bow Street.
It has now made it into a list of the top 9 farmers markets across the UK collated by the national newspaper. It sits alongside the likes of Truro Farmers' Market in Cornwall, Edinburgh Farmers' Market and the Venn Street Market in Clapham, London.
The Sunday Times compiled the list of "markets worth stocking up on" for fresh and local produce at the weekend. The Ashton-under-Lyne farmers' market was praised for its "organic honey, oven-warm meat pies and extra gooey camembert" on offer on the stalls.
