Much Wenlock Farmers' Market

Much Wenlock seems to have all the things I like! It's got an abbey, which got attacked by Vikings and replaced by a Cluniac priory. Wenlock Priory is now in ruins, but is open to the public. There's also a fine parish church:
and a beautiful Guildhall, built in 1540.
It's here where Much Wenlock Farmers' Market takes place, on the first and third Friday of the month.
The open space on the ground floor, where the Farmers' Market is, used to be the Corn Market. Much Wenlock Farmers' Market Stall holders include Ashford Farm Shop, Park Gate Farm, Wenlock Edge Farm and Willows Kitchen.

Whilst you're in the Guildhall have a look at the signs from when Wenlock was a Borough:
I particularly liked this sign on the wall:
It seems that there's nothing new about bad parking on market days...
