Test Valley Borough Council has the following markets: Andover street market, Thursdays and Saturdays.  Romsey street market Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays.   Andover Artisan Market which runs on the third Sunday of the month.

Here is the Council’s response to our Freedom of Information request:

Q: Do you allow stall holders at your markets to sell real fur? (including small items such as knitted hats with fur bobbles, or key rings with fur trims etc.

A:  Not specifically excluded from terms of market contract but traders must comply with all relevant legislation.

The Council allows the sale of fur. They have asked to see our Fur Free Markets policy to consider.

Real fur is cruel and unnecessary. Please urge the Council to ban the sale of real fur on their markets and adopt the official Fur Free Markets policy by contacting Councillor David Drew, Economic Development & Tourism, email: Cllrddrew@testvalley.gov.uk
