Macclesfield is known as Treacletown, referring to the centuries-old accident when a horse-drawn wagon overturned, spilling its cargo of Treacle onto the cobbles.
The Treacle Market is a chance to find gorgeous things on Macclesfield’s streets once again – Just less sticky.
The stalls feature a wealth of local goods and crafts. From cheeses to woolly hats, Treacle Market is a lovely way to spend a few hours wandering amongst the stalls, trying out the local fayre and getting to know the stallholders.
