Friday, 23 March: William Morris' Birthday Cake


We just had the pleasure of meeting Martin Adams who let us have a peek inside his prize box, which he's taking to the Forest School for a party celebrating William Morris' birthday on 24 March. The cake is made every year by Scrolls & Shells, who operate out of Wood Street Market, and this year depicts 'The Forest' tapestry.

Mr Adams also regaled us with stories of when he used to get his hair cut in the barber shop inside the market and offered the sage advice that Wood Street Market should keep up with contemporary opening hours to ensure its survival.
