Ripon for the market
From £32.95 pp
  • Overview

    An introduction to Ripon for the Market

    Ripon, in Yorkshire, is a cathedral city steeped in history and home to magnificent historical buildings and long-observed traditions. You will find a trio of award winning museums and a gothic cathedral that dates back to the 7th century waiting to feed enquiring minds.

     

    With a thriving market place and a magnificent cathedral, this busy little city will earn a place in any visitor's heart. Reaching out from the market square are small streets and snickets that are home to the eclectic and specialist shops for which Ripon is so loved. Amongst them are cafes and pubs, offering refreshment and home cooked food throughout the day.

     

     

    Ripon's market goes to the heart of its character and takes place within the central market square. The market fills with stalls from local traders and features a broad range of goods and local produce.

    The traditional fruit and veg offering is well represented but this is just the start, you will also find fishmongers, cheesemongers, confectioners and freshly made baked goods including mouthwatering pastries and pasties.

     

     

    This city's history is entwined with the church, both due to the cathedral in the city centre and its proximity to the nearby Fountains Abbey.

    The growth of the city through trade and manufacturing led to the building of a canal to link it to the navigable parts of the River Ure. Today this makes Ripon a delightful city to explore, with riverside and canal side walks that reach into the countryside and buildings that span the last thousand years.
