| Petticoat Lane | ||
As an east end lad "going down the lane" was always a treat and Petticoat Lane is still a good treat, a worth while visit, This is London's world famous Sunday market and sells mainly clothes - for men, women and children, from street-cred clubwear to cabbage (I was in the rag trade) which is really over production and seconds of designer goods and last month's / years designs. One of the specialities is leather wear and there's bric-a-brac and household goods, too. The market is held in and around Middlesex Street (there is no Petticoat Lane any more) and is open from 09:00-14:00 on Sundays, with a smaller market open from Monday-Friday. with mainly shops operating stalls. at the north end was the pet market where animals were sold Nearest Tube: Liverpool Street. |
