I doubt the market is holding back Chorley as Bury, Wigan, Bolton and Preston all have them too (indoor and outdoor) and they all have a fantastic variety of shops.

I think the town centre is too small, most of the shops are cramped with little space to move round.

Add to this the fact that most people have no manners and it makes Chorley an unpleasant shopping experience.

I live in Chorley but love shopping elsewhere for the politeness and friendliness of other shoppers.

The space and variety of great shops are a pleasant bonus!
