Anyone know when Retford market takes place? I think, and only think, it's a Friday. Also, anyone know whereabouts in Retford the market is and if it's easy to find?

 

TIA

That's great, thanks. It's actually the antique market I'm after. Does this market take place in the market square?

It's bang in the middle of the town centre - they have a smaller version of the stone market square that Chesterfield and Mansfield have - Woolworths used to face onto the square, there's a Barclays bank on the other side and a load of pubs... Thursday always used to be a great market there - more recently went on a saturday and the prices for fish etc were amazingly low!!!

Yep, Friday's definitely the day for antiques/bric a brac and so on. Usually a fair amount of railwayiana if you're into that sort of thing.
