<a href="http://gagravarr.org/misc/covered_market.png"><img src="http://gagravarr.org/misc/covered_market_small.png" alt="Map of the Covered Market" align="right" /></a> The covered market covers the area between [[Cornmarket]] and [[Turl Street]] and [[Market Street]] and [[High Street]]. The current layout of the market dates from the 18th Century although a market has existed in Oxford since at least the 12th Century. The covered market was created due to a desire to move stalls off the busy streets and into one central area. It may seem unbelievable that this area once contained over a hundred stalls but originally the shops were much smaller with tiny fronts. Only a few shops remain in the market at the original size. There are now around 60 shops in the market. There is a mix of food shops (Butchers, Grocers, Delicatessens etc), places to eat (Cafes, Sandwich shops etc), and shops (Clothing, Shoes, Florists, Gifts etc).
