“I felt a great buzz from both the public and stallholders,” said Steve Dauwalder, operations manager for The Anonymous Travelling Market who manage the event for Burgess Hill Town Council.

“The public were clearly impressed by the wider choice of products and produce and the majority of longstanding traders felt, with the additional choice, the public were spending longer there,” he said.

Footfall increased significantly in November with most of the regular stallholders reporting an upturn.
