Market history - Norwich market, then and now
In this re-enactment, a farming family from 500 years ago bring their produce to market, to trade with other stallholders. A local historian explains how the range of vegetables they grew then was seasonal and much more limited than what we find now, though some 鈥榣uxury鈥� fruit, like oranges and figs, were shipped in from the Mediterranean. He also describes how, over time, the present-day city grew up around the original market.
