Summer Retail Pitches on the Quay

Three temporary concession pitches have been made available to let this Summer

The three pitches offer a unique trading location from the historic town centre quay, which remains a popular draw with holidaymakers and locals during the summer months. The council is keen to hear from both established businesses and fledgling enterprises looking for an opportunity to try out a new business idea or concept.
