Westmoreland Road Flea Market - A Eulogy!

Between East Street Market and Albany Road SE17, lies Westmoreland Road. Famous for its 'pie and mash' shop, opened in 1914 by W J Arment & Son and up untill last year its Flea Market.
Visiting Westmoreland Road Flea Market was like stepping back into victorian times, a raggle taggle bunch of people selling a raggle taggle bunch of goods. Old clothes, bits of crockery, dubious looking electrical items, well thumbed books etc
Now its gone but the memory still lingers! http://www.soundsurvey.org.uk/index.php/survey/soundmaps/more/37/35/
