Hide AdAnd Coun Matthew Relf, cabinet member for place, planning and regeneration, said: “We want the new market to have a name that represents Kirkby but gives the market its own identity. Moor Market does this perfectly, tying in with its location on Lowmoor Road.
“Our aim for the new market is to attract artisan food, creative and craft traders to sit alongside the café offering fresh barista made coffee. The name and brand reflect our aspirations of bringing a new kind of shopping experience to Kirkby.”
With work now well underway, the market will offer an open plan indoor trading area for seven market stalls and a new café.
The redevelopment will see new signage and shutters, as well as outdoor seating for the café.
