17 fantastic photographs of Mansfield's markets from the sixties to the eighties

Mansfield once boasted a booming market, both indoor and outdoor, until buying habits changed.

We are heading back to the sixties, seventies and eighties with this gallery, to a bustling marketplace and a look back at the popular indoor market.

The indoor market on Queen Street and Exchange Row was a popular addition to the town centre when it opened in 1965.

Have a look through the gallery and reminisce about the good old days of browsing the stalls, followed by a trip to the Swiss Chalet if you were lucky.
