Sclater Street Market East London

July 21, 2016

I have been going to Sclater Street market just off Brick Lane for nearly 40 years. Like everything else of value in the East End of London it is under threat from gentrification and money grabbing developers who care nothing for local people, culture or heritage.

    Hi, I was just wondering if you knew when the Sclater St Market (second-hand/bric a brick items) has started?

    Thanks.

    Regards,

      Apparently it has been going for nearly two centuries.
