A market with history
Brighouse Open Market has been a cornerstone of the town since 1902, when it first opened on King Street. It moved to Bonegate in the 1950s and after redevelopment in the 1970s, found its home on Ship Street. In 2025, we unveiled our brand-new market building, bringing a fresh chapter to this proud tradition.
What you will find
Fresh, local produce:
- Butchers, greengrocers, fishmongers, plus cheese and deli treats.
Street food and drinks:

Local crafts and handmade goods:

And much more!
