Under the Market Roof

T0749712975
Ever since she was a child, Lisa has spent her Saturdays working on her Granddad Len's hardware stall. Everyone knows old Len, the man who turned up on Chorley Market as a lad with nothing but a couple of suitcases of stock and made a life out of it. But Len hasn't seemed himself lately, and Lisa starts to wonder if the 'L. Shaw' sign above the cabin could be 'L' for Lisa. She loves the market and the people at the heart of it, but is her Mum right when she says there's no future in the market?
