AFTER lengthy negotiations Bridport’s popular vintage market on the St Michael’s trading estate is back this Sunday.
The monthly market began in 2010 as an extension to the antique, collectible, retro and vintage businesses that are based on the estate. Richard Payne-Withers, of Alleyways Bridport Antiques Centre, said: “It grew very quickly not only because of its excellent location by the river at the heart of the town but also because it was tapping into the growing retro, antiques and collectibles scene in Dorset.
A spokesman for estate owners Hayward & Co said: “We are pleased to welcome back the market on to the estate. We hope to build on the success of its previous life.”
