Lego never ceases to amaze me! I always find something cool in Lego shop. I recently found a area in Milton Keynes shopping centre that I have never seen before. My son needed the toilet and whilst following the signs we stumbled upon a frog clock spitting out bubbles and best of all ... a Lego shop! Yay! My son went straight for the farm sets, other half was in a world of his own with the Star Wars bits and I was in awe of the Farmers Market display. I thought the best bit of my son's Lego truck was the drivers' cup and tool box so I thought the collection of little Lego fruit was so cute.

Beyond the flower market you can either climb the stone steps to the market proper or go into the main indoor section ...

~~~HISTORY OF THE OLD MARKET~~~
One of the amenities tucked away at the back of Brunswick Town was the Market which was not only built by the architect, Charles Busby but also financed by him.
