SIR,

It was a pleasure to read through the nicely-produced magazine included with last week's Beacon.

The best part of all, for me anyway, in the article Our Beautiful, Beautiful Town, was to see the colourful photograph of how lively and vibrant the market in Agincourt Square looked in the recent past.

It is so sad to see it now permanently looking so dull and boring.
