For two to three weeks in late November and early December, the outdoor Bath Christmas Market sells gift items and regional specialties—from handcrafted toys to candles, cards, and edible delights—in over 200 chalet-style stalls concentrated in the area just south of the Abbey.
A home, garden, and fashion market is held in this mid-19th-century building Monday through Thursday; an antiques market on Friday; and a crafts market on Saturday.
The historic covered Guildhall Market, close to the Abbey and Pulteney Bridge, has around 20 stallholders selling everything from jewelry and gifts to delicatessen food, secondhand books, bags, and batteries. There's a café, too.
Every Monday and Friday, Cirencester's central Market Place is packed with stalls selling a motley assortment of goods, mainly household items but some local produce and crafts, too. An excellent farmers' market takes place here every second and fourth Saturday of the month.
