Bolton Market

Bolton has had a market since 1253. The Market Hall of 1854 is now a Grade II listed building. The present market is on Ashburner Street[1] and is open every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.[2] In 2024 a new food hall was opened.[3] It is in informal competition with nearby Bury Market and celebrated in 2025 when the town was rated the 10th most 'quintessential' market town in UK.[4]

The market has featured in Faking It on Channel 4. [5]
