Ulverston, Market town in Westmorland and Furness, England
Situated between the Lake District National Park and Morecambe Bay, Ulverston features regular outdoor markets on Market Street and New Market Street.
King Edward I granted Ulverston its market charter in 1280 at Carlisle, allowing Roger of Lancaster to hold weekly Thursday markets and annual fairs.
The Dickensian Christmas Festival fills the streets with performers, seasonal activities, and local vendors during the last weekend of November.
The indoor market hall on New Market Street opens Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The Hoad Monument, constructed in 1850, stands as a tribute to Sir John Barrow while marking the northern edge of the town.
