SHOPPERS enjoyed a kind of magic at a speciality market in one of the region's towns at the weekend.

Magicians performed tricks in Guisborough town centre on Saturday as Easter shoppers packed the speciality market.

Stilt-walkers, jugglers and the Old Glory Band also provided entertainment, as traders set up shop on the town's cobbles. The entertainment was funded by the Guisborough Market Town Initiative group, and there was also a marquee with arts and crafts activities for children.

A spokesman for the market town initiative said: "The speciality market really complements the traditional market and the town's large number of speciality shops.
