The car park at Masham was full yesterday as the town saw an increase in walkers and day trippers as people were allowed to travel afield for a day out.
Market stall holders said business picked up this week and they are expecting it to get much busier still after April 12th when camp sites and caravan parks can re-open.

“It’s been very busy today -we’ve done alright. People are starting to get going after their injections.”
Alison Hope who owns No12 Greengrocer said the support from local people has been fantastic and trade was starting to pick up:
“We’re looking forward to having more stalls after the 12th April. It’s Easter weekend and people are feeling a bit more confident to come out. We have been really lucky”
The Sunday Times recently included the market town in its annual Best Places to Live guide.
Masham was one of nine runners-up behind Ilkley in the north-east of England category. No other town or city in the Harrogate district was selected.
