Wonder what will take its place, or will it be another empty space:(

Why not move that awful outside market in there and give it some character. Then you have room for a good bus station?

There are no merits attached to being 'outside'
Fleetwood market is mainly undercover in two large connected halls.
It still has stalls like outdoor markets do and is only open on 'market days',
It is reasonable to assume that people prefer to be sheltered when shopping.

Its not a matter of that Margaret, outside markets are covered by Charter, which only allows them to open on certain days, thats why when they had the flea markets on Thusdays new goods should not have been sold.
