The aim is to support “local makers and craftsmen by providing a vibrant platform to showcase their products, including wooden crafts, jewellery, handmade soaps, art, flowers and ornaments."

Some 20 traders will attend the first market, which will also feature live music, activities for kids (bouncy castle), delicious food and coffee from the on-site gourmet café.

The organisers hope to stage these markets regularly, with farmers' produce, rotisserie chicken, free range meat and more planned for August 24, as well as ongoing events throughout the year.
