Continental Market
We were fortunate enough to visit Alnwick town whilst a Continental market was being held. The array of goods on sale was larger than I expected and the variety most interesting.
Salamis and hams of differing breeds were on offer, all types of roasted nuts and crystalised and dried fruits, olives, cheeses, vegetables and a freshly baked baguette stall were amongst our favourites. Sampling was the done thing, with plates of the goods on offer all round the market.
We only bought a tiny venison salami sausage and a baguette. Both of these items were £1 each. We were astonished at the high prices and kept our hands in our pockets after our two measly purchases,our purse only being very, very small!!!
Great to wander round and if you've lots of money, I'm sure you'll find plenty to spend it on!!
