Children, pets and cleaners are definitely out if you want to preserve your fragile collectables! The passing of time is nothing compared to these, the three biggest culprits for damaging china, porcelain and glass!

In this case, bigger is not better. It is quite possibly the worst antiques shop (or collection of shops) that I have ever frequented. Whilst there are one or two had-decent stalls, the majority is bric a brac and absolute tat. The roof is falling down in places, making the entire place freezing and damp. There wasn’t a stall holder in sight, so not sure how you’re supposed to buy (if you are lucky enough to find something actually worthwhile spending money on). The fact they have the audacity to charge an entry fee is also beyond me - it’s probably a necessity due to them not actually making

Great place for picking up a bargain, full of weird and wonderful stuff, could easily spend hours there. Go with warm clothes on though! And pen and paper, as a lot of items are locked in cabinets and you have to remember the stalls name etc to get staff to open it.... and it's a hugh maize of place.....
