A Northumberland town has been revealed as one of the UK's best 10 market towns.
Hexham was ranked ninth on the list compiled by Bullocks Coaches, which revealed the 10 best market towns to visit in the UK.
It said that the town offers 'culture and community' throughout the week.
"Nestled in the heart of Northumberland, Hexham is a historic town that feels calm and welcoming," Bullocks said.
"The weekly Tuesday market in the town’s central square brims with stalls offering a range of local goods. Just steps away, the covered Shambles Market trades daily, perfect for browsing come rain or shine.
"The Farmers’ Market also brings out the region’s best producers twice a month – think seasonal veg, local meats, chutneys, and more.
"After exploring the markets, why not visit the majestic Hexham Abbey, stroll by the river, or take a trip to nearby Vindolanda for Roman ruins?"
