Mercantile Flea shopping outlet

We currently have a booth at the Mercantile Flea situated in the old Sainsbury building, just past the Bitterne Post Office, at 20-26 West End Road. Here we sell Bric-a-Brac, pre-owned books, etc. as well as our own publications.

We have just had a large reorganisation of our stall so many prices have been reduced and there are bargains to be had.

Monday to Friday: 10.00 am – 5.00 pm
Saturday: 10.00 am – 5.00 pm
Sundays: 10.00 am – 4.00 pm
