Customers browsed around a selection of 12 shops – including a record store, bakery and art supplies retailer.

The new market has an urban vibe that feels more like Affleck’s Palace or Portabello Road.

Many of the stalls offer something unique, with a big focus on creativity and locally sourced produce.
