A colourful mix of new and second-hand stuff (all of it cheap), Deptford Market falls neatly into the well-established tradition of London's thriving East End market culture. This is gritty shopping for those fed-up with the chintz and cheese of the capitals more tourist-led outdoor shopping experiences. Music blares out as you rummage through stall after stall of cheap clothes, imported CDs, knock-off electrics, exotic fruits and pile upon pile of second-hand clobber. If youre in the area grab your loose change and rummage away.
