One of the traders, The Great British Bee Company said:
'The Honey we plan to sell is from
Our own very sustainable source about three miles from the Cathedral,
Our Beeswax candle range is completely clean burning and non-toxic and free from any allergens,
Our award winning skincare range is all palm oil free, any fragrance products do not contain any Soya.
Our stand is made from repurposed antique fruit crates.'
All that Christmas shopping is thirsty work and you can really work up a hunger, but fear not as there are plenty of food and drink chalets at the market to keep you fueled!
Benches are available in the Food Court area so you can rest your legs and enjoy the Community Stage performances or before heading to one of the cathedral services.
