Well, after discovering Widnes Flea Market last Wednesday I hardly expected to be told of yet another car boot sale that takes place on Wednesdays (and Sundays) in Leigh, just off the East Lancs Road https://www.facebook.com/eastlancscarboot http://www.eastlancscarboot.co/East_Lancs_Car_Boot/Welcome.html
Weather was ok yesterday (can be cancelled at very short notice if there is the threat of rain) so we set off bout 09:30, getting there just after 10:00 - wasn't very well signposted yesterday but we found it LOL Apparently on a Sunday or Bank Holiday there are signs on both sides of the East Lancs, giving you ample warning.
This is the sign they should have had LOL
The car boot sale takes place in a big field away from the main road, be warned the "road" is terribly uneven but I thought it was worth all the ups and downs. I was surprised how many stalls were there, to be honest, with it being midweek. There were a couple of regulars who said it was normally a bit busier but it still took me a while to get round all the stalls - there was certainly an eclectic mix of wares - I left just over an hour later £15 poorer hee hee
I'm looking forward to this Sunday when I hope to visit again when there are a lot more sellers and buyers - hope to see you there too!
