I bet waitrose does not attract anything like as much attention as the market did.  Parking along the A31 slipway on a Wednesday morning.

I don't like market much, sounds daft but the townie in me doesn't deal too well with selling livestock. OH goes a lot and we sell our sheep there but i prefer to stay at home.I would rather deal direct to customers than through market but i accept they are essential for British agriculture.

When I am in the UK I live in Ringwood.  The Wednesday market is still there but it doesn't sell livestock these days. In fact it just the same as any other market. A few plant stalls, meat van too but mostly taken over by cheap clothes/shoes and the pound stall.
If I happen to be there on a Wed I will have a wander but there is nothing to make a special visit for. Its a real shame. 
Life is like a bowl of cherries, mostly yummy but some dodgy bits

Markets here are much the same, except that they all appear to have a live chicken stall, sometimes live rabbits as well.
