Macclesfield's treacle market is a huge event now and well worth a visit. After being held on the worst weather day of every month for about the past 6 months, the hardy traders certainly deserved today's balmy weather.
@andyr Our town has a nickname locally of "treacle town" which I'm told is after a treacle lorry turned over in the 1950s on our main road. A committee got the market going again and it's incredibly busy and vibrant.
I can just imagine the feel of this, you have captured the mood really well. The flags really add to the jolly air, and everyone seems very intent on buying their portions of treacle.
