GALLERY: Queues round block at Primark and busy beer gardens in Doncaster

These were the scenes in Doncaster today as thousands of shoppers raced back to the town centre on the first day of the easing of coronavirus restrictions.

Queues built up outside shops – with bargain hunters snaking around the block at Primark in the Market Place.

Pub beer gardens were busy as drinkers downed their first pints in months and town centre streets were bustling with shoppers as non essential stores re-opened for the first time since January.

Barbers and beauty salons also had queueing customers – although not all businesses have re-opened.

Here’s a pictorial look at life in Doncaster town centre on the first day of lockdown easing.
