Charter Market
Cirencester Charter Market was founded in 1086 and whilst many markets have disappeared, the Town Council is in a position where it is still able to provide a Charter Market on both Mondays and Fridays (9.00 a.m. to 3.00 p.m.).
Products sold by the regular market traders include cheese, homemade pies, home cured ham and bacon, wet fish, fruit and vegetables, olives, gifts, cards and much more.
Come and see for yourselves and support this valuable and historical attraction.
If you would like further information on the Charter Market or are interested in hiring a stall, please contact the Council's Customer Information Point on Tel: 01285 655646.

Abbey Grounds
The area is steeped in history, a portion of ancient Roman Wall being situated in the grounds and the site of the old St Mary's Abbey is outlined with paving.
This park provides an opportunity for relaxation, entertainment and angling. The bandstand is regularly used throughout the summer, whilst the Abbey Lake Angling Club is responsible for controlling and operating the fishing on the lake.
