About this audio guide
This guide to Bath Guildhall Market follows the people who work behind its counters, starting with Nikki Lakin and the tea business Henry Gillard founded in eighteen eighty-eight. You'll hear how the leaf is still blended and weighed, why one recipe was made for the city's water, and who comes back for it. It also reaches back to the numbered stalls and market bailiffs of the seventeen-seventies. Best heard standing near the old stone pillar under the dome.
