Parking in Leigh is directly behind the police station and town council offices, where the market is actually held (down a small road between these buildings), or there is another car park in North Street. There is also parking on the roads, but it's busy, so can take a while to get a spot.
 
BUY FRESH, KEEP IT LOCAL!

ACTUALLY TALK TO THE FARMERS AND PRODUCERS!

AVOID YOUR SUPERMARKET, THE HASSLE AND THE QUEUES! :)
