The council has recently snapped up site at auction

- By Jonathan Sutton Local Democracy Reporter

A CONSULTATION into the future of a market has ended and the final plans will be revealed later this year.

Staffordshire Moorlands District Council paid £260,000 for Cheadle market at auction following concerns over its future.

Over the past few weeks the local authority has been consulting on the plans for the future of the site but is clear that no final plans have been agreed.

Residents and shoppers were asked a series of questions on what they want for the future of the site — including whether it should stay as a market.
