CAMDEN MARKETS
If you can’t find what you’re looking for in Camden,it’s time to give up and go home. This sprawling market covers half the neighbourhood, with various enclaves dedicated to international streetfood, independent shopping and local design, stretching from the riverside food stalls of Camden Lock to the cavernous underbelly of the Horse Tunnel Market. Hunt hard and you might pick up a Mexican hammock, a Gambian hoodie or a corduroy Saville Row suit from the 1950s.
