THE artisan market returns to Northwich on Saturday, April 12, after a troubled few weeks.

The Market Co is delivering markets in Northwich on the second Saturday of each month now that the original artisan market partnership has been dissolved.

Saturday’s event will include a tantalising array of street food, children’s slides and fairground rides, more than 120 artisan traders, tractor and trailer rides and Easter egg hunt courtesy of Northwich Town Council.

In a first for Northwich, St Luke’s Hospice’s ‘Frock Stop’ will also be available.

This is the hospice’s vintage Routemaster double-decker bus Luke kitted out by Bentley Motors and converted into an exclusive, elegant boutique offering high quality, designer label ladies clothing and accessories.

Luke will be situated at the top of Witton Street near Brunner Court.
