Tadcaster, Market town in Selby, England.
Tadcaster sits on the banks of the River Wharfe in a setting marked by limestone buildings that define the town's character. Several historic breweries operate here, taking advantage of the local water quality.
The settlement began as a Roman fort called Calcaria and later appeared in the Domesday Book as an established place. This early importance shaped its role as a trading center through the following centuries.
The Thursday market has brought together locals and traders for centuries, creating a regular gathering point for the community. People come to browse goods, catch up with neighbors, and maintain the town's social connections.
The town center has plenty of free parking and is easily walkable for exploring the main streets. The best time to visit is on market day when activity is concentrated in the center.
The local water contains high levels of calcium sulfate, which makes it specially suited for brewing and attracted three established breweries to the town. This natural advantage has sustained the brewing tradition for generations.
