On sunny days, people seem to be enjoying the newly landscaped market place in Shipley. What was previously a rather boring paved area has recently been improved with curving flower beds and lawns, ramps and safer steps. The old wooden market stalls have been replaced with umbrella canopies, and on market days portable booths are set up too. It's all quite a lot more pleasant - though the iconic 1960s concrete clock tower at the front of the covered market still needs some attention. People either love that as a feature or hate it - and the clock doesn't work any more.
