Used to work on the market as a kid - it was huge. I believe it was the biggest indoor market in England. Then later we'd go to Wrexham Market on a Monday, Elesmere Port on a Tuesday and Frodsham market on Thursdays. I dont really recall Frodsham at all.

Ellesmere port market was a regular for my wife & I when we were semi dealers doing car boots etc house clearence vans etc loads of stalls - now the massive market hall is now a big ASDA..... with a small tiny room indoor market which is so small plus a £1 to park your car on a Asda car park many years ago sadly .
