Located at the start of Lowestoft’s historic High street, Triangle Market was at the centre of Lowestoft’s original town centre. Markets are still held here on Fridays, beneath purpose-built market canopies. The “Eastern Sails” were designed by John Whiteside, who won a competition set by the Council as part of an attempt to turn the area into a “heritage and cultural quarter”. Other new attractions include specialist shops and an arts centre.
