Petticoat Lane Market London

Short video showing some of the stalls at the Petticoat Street Market across the street from Liverpool Train/Tube Station
Petticoat Lane Market is a fashion and clothing market located on Wentworth Street and Middlesex Street in East London.It is one of a number of traditional markets, lying to the east of the City of London. A few hundred yards to the north is Old Spitalfields market, and across Commercial Street, to the east, lies Brick Lane Market. Nearby is the newly-refurbished Spitalfields Market, which houses a more upmarket selection of stalls. A half mile further east is the Columbia Road Flower market. Petticoat Lane Market was not formally recognised until an Act of Parliament in 1936, but its long history as an informal market makes it possibly one of the oldest surviving markets in Britain.

The market is open Monday to Friday on Wentworth Street alone, but on Sunday extends over many of the surrounding streets, with over a thousand stalls. It is closed on Saturday, and on Sunday closes at about 2 pm. The markets are well signed from local stations.

I worked there back in 2003 when I was in London as an ACCA student. Being a finance manager in Pakistan, this video brought back wonderful memories :) Thanks for the upload. But I couldn't guess where did you enter from and where did you go. May be long time ago but 1 thing's sure, London don't change quickly. I used to work on a shirt stall. 4 for 20 - 4 for 20 haha
