LETTER: Why has the market moved?

Why has Holbeach market been moved?

I wonder whoever thought this was a good idea didn’t think of the elderly and disabled who can’t wallkthat far.

Why was it moved because where it was before didn’t cause any problems – it was there for years.

The footpath was wide enough to push prams and pushchairs along the pavement while the market was there so that is not the problem – so what is?

Ask the shopkeepers their thoughts.
