Located in the heart of ‘Nappy Valley’ — the area between Clapham and Wandsworth — Northcote Road Market is no longer a humble fruit and veg market for locals. Nowadays it sells a mixture of cured meats, olives, cakes, jewellery, clothing and arts and crafts as well as more everyday items. On Fridays and Saturdays, its busiest days when all the stalls are open, you’ll also come across vendors offering street food like pizzas and hog roasts. Antiques can be found at the indoor Northcote Road Antiques Market, which is south down the street, while there are also numerous nearby restaurants, cafés and boutique shops to poke around.
