A POPULAR farmers' market will remain at Moss Bank Park for the time being - because Bolton Council bosses cannot decide where to move it.

Tomorrow's market was due to be the last at the current venue because town hall chiefs say the park's disabled car park, where it is held, is too small for the growing number of stalls.

But now they have announced a new date for the farmers' market at Moss Bank Park and suspended their plans to relocate it.

Tomorrow's market will be followed by another on April 22.

A council spokesman said: "We are finalising details of a permanent home for the farmers' market and we hope to be able to make an announcement about the site soon.

"The market will continue to be held at the park in April and stallholders can look forward to a new, permanent home from May."

A number of possible Bolton town centre and out-of-town sites are being considered by the council, including Ashburner Street.

The monthly farmers' market, which has 28 stalls, was originally held at Smithills Hall, but moved from there a year ago.

The decision to move it again sparked outrage among traders, who claimed they would lose customers.

Chef Michael Cole, is appearing at the market tomorrow and will be giving cooking demonstrations between 10am and noon. Mr Cole is the head chef at the Lancaster House Hotel's award-winning restaurant in Lancaster.

In addition to the cookery demonstrations, there will be a children's entertainer and face painting.
