The 1920s saw continuing growth as a market centre, held on a Thursday, the stalls spread across the pavements of Church Street and in an open area by the Angel Hotel opposite the Griffin Inn. It was the turkey sales which made the town a thriving market centre during the 1930s, and thousands have been sold each year on Michaelmas Day. Local employment still primarily revolved around the Gaymer's cider works, established in the late 19th century. A great deal of the town's improvement occurred in the 1960s. The overspill programme and new town improvement brought new families into south Norfolk. Attleborough had to make decisions for the future and new development zones were designated. The first estate programme started with the establishment of the council-owned Cyprus Estate which has since been added to by additional private housing schemes, including Fairfields and Ollands built mostly in the 1970s and a substantial estate on the south side of the town during 1990s.
