  • review rating 5  One of the best organised in the area. This car boot should be set as a bench mark for others to reach. Facilities really do make the day of selling so much easier. Free at donuts btw.

  • review rating 3  Large field with plenty of space for sellers and buyers to park. Neatly organised. Includes rides for children, food vans, toilets, first aid caravan, and regular business sellers as well as private persons. Usually has an abundance of stalls with baby clothes and products. Disappointing that there is now a charge to buyers (50p per adult) as well as sellers. Especially as there has been reports of increased number of cars damaged and broken into while parked here. Runs for about 6 months of the year, every other Sunday.
