The various traders specialise in pieces from the 1950s-1970s, offering up a decent number of coffee tables, occasional furniture, lamps and sideboards from the period. There is a slight overabundance of stuff in that orangey-red teak colour that’s a little too kitschy for my liking but there are plenty of other things I’ve seen at these events that would work in a contemporary interior. I’ve only bought small bits of toot (albeit nice bits of toot) from Judy’s to date but I hold out hope that I’m going to find (and manage to get home) an incredible vintage piece of furniture at a bargain price at some point.

Some haggling is tolerated but I suspect this is because the vendors have marked up the prices in advance to account for this. I would recommend arriving for the 10am start time, doing a quick circuit of the shabby town hall (including the stage) and then placing a deposit on any items that catch your eye, especially if it’s furniture. Most of the decent stuff has been bought or reserved by about 10.30am, if not earlier.
