Unfortunately the foundry is now full of just empty shops, with nothing much to offer Scunthorpe and out of town residents.

If zero was available I'd choose that complete dump as is the rest of Scunthorpe. Council seems to think it's wonderful. They've killed the market. Whole shopping area needs flattening and something like The Trafford centre needs building to bring people in

Very pleasant experience. Good to see the change in the market. All under cover, clean and plenty space. All the stall holders were were cheerful and welcoming.

Good shopping centre in Scunthorpe. Reminiscent of Meadowhall in entertainment and events. Friendly atmosphere and many catering facilities. Parking nearby and free for first few hours.
