Local Businesses
Also known as the Richmond Artisan Market, a popular craft market every Sunday in Heron Square, Richmond featuring handmade gifts, clothing, jewellery and home-wares, plus delicious street food and local musicians.
A really lovely market in Richmond, the traders are very friendly and there are some great artisan products - not to mention delicious street food too. It's a brilliant way to spend an hour or two on a Sunday before taking a stroll along the riverside. Heron Square is a beautiful setting, with its picturesque fountain and the live music adds to the atmosphere. Highly recommended.
