Following the ribbon cutting at the Butter Market by Deputy Mayor Rosemary Mackenzie, items that people could purchase in this area included vintage jewellery, art, clothes, candles, crochets, upcycled textiles, silver jewellery, locally made crafts and second hand books.
Berwick-upon-Tweed Town Council came to an arrangement with Northumberland County Council and the Guild of Freemen Trustees to take over the management of Berwick Market.
A great deal of work has already taken place behind the scenes to recruit new traders and launch dedicated social media channels for the Charter Market, which takes place every Wednesday and Saturday.
