Ripon is one of the smallest and most picturesque cities in England, situated on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales. It boasts a stunning Gothic cathedral and a historic market that dates back to the 11th century, with the obelisk in the market square erected in 1702.

The Thursday market offers a range of essential goods, including fresh fruit and vegetables, fish, cheese, eggs, homemade cakes, savoury bakes and locally reared meat. You can also find ladies’ and gents’ fashion, bags and scarves, phone accessories and watch repairs, household refillable essentials, fresh flowers, plants, and more. The smaller Saturday market features fruit and vegetables, locally grown plants, and locally reared meat. As part of the LYLM campaign we would like to offer free one day pitch for new traders.
