ALL the fun of the fair comes to the county town of North Yorkshire next week.

For five days – from April 30 to May 4 – Northallerton’s High Street will be filled with rides and side shows.

And parking, together with bus and taxi collection points, will be changed from April 29 at 6pm until May 5 at 8am.

Parts of the High Street between Zetland Street and All Saints Church will be closed during the fair’s opening hours and as the fair is set up and dismantled.

The Applegarth long and short stay, Crosby Road long stay and Hambleton Forum long and short stay car parks will operate as usual, except for a small number of parking bays in the long stay area of the Applegarth Car Park which will be used by the Showmen’s Guild.

HGV parking will still be available in the Applegarth long stay car park. The Civic Centre car park will also be available for parking.

Bus stops will be moved to Zetland Street for northbound services; and outside the library for southbound services. The town hall taxi rank will move to Zetland Street.

There will be additional disabled parking bays outside the Post Office and Marks and Spencers and the Saturday market will relocate to the southern end of the High Street.
