Ipswich's Cornhill market stalls have moved to a new location as part of a growth strategy.
Shoppers will now find the stalls on the northern side of Cornhill, facing Westgate Street and Lloyds Avenue.
The shift, organised by Ipswich Borough Council, is part of efforts to boost the market's growth and facilitate improvements in Lloyds Avenue.
The stalls now sport a blue-and-white striped design, a nod to Ipswich's traditional colours, aiming to give the market a distinctive appearance.

The council anticipates the new arrangement will not only allow for more stalls but also attract new traders, while continuing to support established businesses.
The change does not affect hot food vendors in Giles Circus, who will remain in their current spots.
The market move paves the way for Lloyds Avenue's redevelopment, which will see wider footpaths, new planting and landscaping, and enhancements beneath Lloyds Arch.
The changes align with the council's broader strategy to revitalise Ipswich town centre, as part of the £25 million Towns Fund programme.
