Market Harborough
Market Harborough is a rare example of a planned medieval ‘new town’. It was created in the 12th century especially to be a market and to promote local trade. Markets are still held in the town on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 8.30am – 5.00pm, with an Antiques Market on Sundays.
The picturesque, busy market town of Market Harborough is just a short five minute drive from Foxton Locks Lodges. The town offers the ideal place to head for a range of well-known high street shops, independent boutiques and a range of restaurants and pubs. The town is steeped in history with the St Dionysious Church and old Grammar School located in the centre of the town. Browse boutiques selling handmade jewelry, handbags, designer clothing and antiques. After you’re all shopped out, stop off at one of the cafes, restaurants or pubs to relax and unwind.
