Following last year's successful visit, the team of traders Marche de France is returning to the county early next month.

They will again visit Ledbury on Friday, April 4, Hereford on Saturday, April 5, and Bromyard on Sunday, April 6.

Once again, as they did last year, they will bring their famous high quality range of produce direct from producers in Normandy, offering cheeses, charcuterie, and the bakery stall will be baking onsite to offer visitors the wonderful smell of baking baguettes, hot croissants and pains au chocolat.

Shoppers will also be able to buy soap from Marseille, and, new this year, jewellery and handmade bedcovers.

This is an opportunity for local people to enjoy a touch of France on their doorsteps and get a taste of some lovely French products - as well as the chance to practise their language skills as the traders will be happy to chat to shoppers in French.

Market will set up as follows:
Ledbury on Friday, April 4.
Hereford High Town on Saturday, April 5.
Bromyard on Sunday, April 6.

The market will be open for trade from 9am to 5pm on each of these days.
Motorists are being advised that road closures will be put in place to allow the markets to take place:
· No parking will be permitted in the parking bays in High Street, from Market House to the pedestrian crossing from 6am to 7pm at Ledbury on April 4
· Market Square and Broad Street, in Bromyard, will be closed from 6am to 7pm on April 6
