I will just mention though, there are 6 benches inside the Market Hall itself, which is probably a more comfortable & certainly in Winter, warmer environment to sit in. No good for smoker's of course.

Cheers Taggy.
Since we've now decided market halls are better off without market stalls, and replaced them with seating area, and community art exhibition spaces, those benches inside are nearly always full.
As you say, it is warmer in there.
People seem to sit there, and settle themselves for the day.
Probably do that to save on their heating costs at home, in the hope they might be able to pay next year's increased council tax bills.
