One of the enduring English traditions for our towns and cities is market day which has been held at Bourne since the 13th century but as a result of declining support in recent years, South Kesteven District Council which holds the market rights, introduced new gaily coloured canopies for the stalls in 2009 in an attempt to attract more business on Thursdays and Saturdays.
