' The Market Town '
Last of three talks by W. G. Hoskins
Reader in Economic History in the University of Oxford
Whatever their origin, the survival and growth of most English towns has depended on their capacity to attract trade. 'Standing in the market place,' says Dr. Hoskins, ' we are—not always but very often-at the origin of things.' In this talk he shows how the size and shape of its trading centre has affected the modern landscape of the market town.
