Jacky Whites Market



Some right "up me'sell, I've moved on from what Sunderland is" wankers on here. Jacky White's is what it is, a cheap alternative for those that want it there.

If you want anodyne, faceless corporacy, fuck off to the Metrocentre or whatever.

Absolutely everything for sale in there, from sweets to cloth. It all smells of meat.

This was once the life and soul of Sunderland city centre. Now it is a complete shambles, with horrible store owners picking on the less fortunate who don't buy their products. The meat in the butchers in there is also of very poor quality. The place needs gutted and replaced with a Next store.

Always been a crappy place IMO
 
Part of the town, people use it and needs to be kept open as long as it remains profitable for the stallholders.
Matty Thorburn's stall is a little goldmine - never empty.
