South west London is the destination of our newest vintage market, located at Merton Abbey Mills in south Wimbledon
In a scenic spot on the banks of the River Wandle, Abbey Mills is cluster of old textile factory buildings packed with history. The site was used for textile manufacturing for centuries and was where Liberty & Co and William Morris produced their intricate silk print designs in the arts and crafts period of the late 1900s and early 20th century. Today it’s home to craft workshops, potters, independent shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs, a theatre and lots of small businesses. There’s also a visitors’ centre and a large, working watermill
On Saturday 6th September, thirty vintage traders from across London, the south and further afield, will be gathered outside with thousands of amazing and unusual things to discover and buy
Around the piazza and between the mill’s buildings you’ll find a big selection of mid 20th century and vintage furniture, lighting and interior decoration, homeware, original posters, prints, antique maps and charts, books, records, French brocante, vintage clothes (including childrens’s), and lots more
Most traders take card payments, and will deliver locally if you want to buy something big, like a piece of furniture
Grab a coffee from Forty Coffee Roastery when you arrive, and take a break for lunch from one of the variety of independent eateries on site. With three pubs here you won’t go thirsty, either!
Abbey Mills is on the Wandle Trail, a twelve mile riverside walk between Croydon and Wandsworth, with Morden Hall Park (National Trust) and Dean City Farm nearby, so there won’t be a lack of other things to see and do when you come along on 6th September!
