Hi folks,i'm currently in the process of gathering information about Blyth Market and a little bit about its history.
Any market traders out there who have ever been a stall holder at the market ? It would be great to hear your stories and experiences of trading at Blyth.
Looking at this old photograph I would swear that the lady in the bottom right hand corner is my nana !
It's interesting to note how full the market looks back then compared with today.
