Full Description

{1} The Saturday market was first granted in 1300 to Roger Brabazon. The granting of this market may have been an attempt to take the place of Naseby market which it seems likely had decayed by this date, if it ever actually functioned. Sibbertoft market is likely to have functioned briefly for it was still claimed in 1330 but was presumably lost in the later C14th recession.
The documentary record for the settlement is poor and the site of the market place could not be determined from the examination of the historic maps.
