Plans unveiled for Leicester Market

Plans for a £7.5m revamp of Leicester's outdoor market in the city's Old Town have been revealed.

Mayor Sir Peter Soulsby outlined the designs which would include upgrades for stalls, enhanced lighting, paving, and a shuttered perimeter to keep the site secure at night.

Subject to planning permission, work on the market refurbishment could get under way in spring 2023 and will take about 15 months to complete.

Helen McCarthy went to the plan's unveiling.
