It’s a food market and an expensive one at that. This is where all the local farmers from around London and stretching as far as Devon and Cornwall come to sell their goods on a Friday and Saturday. You can find every conceivable foodstuff here and it goes without saying that it’s pretty much mostly organic. There are stands with every texture and flavour of balsamic vinegar, cheese stands, fresh oysters, spice stands where you can spend hours trying every different bizarre spice with olive oil and pita bread, people selling jam in every variety from ginger and orange to Elderflower and gooseberry, falafel and wrap stands and my personal favourite the raclette stand with all the proper trimmings including corchicons and pickled onions. On a Saturday you can barely move for the volume of people but it’s worth it to sample fresh apple juice, fudge, coffee from Argentina, authentic Italian bread and local cheese.
