I'm a saddo, I'm watching Antique Roadshow and they're going in fabulous huge antique/reproduction shops and barns with loads of kitsch stuff to rummage through.

Does anyone know of such places around Berks/Surrey please?

I think rick means packhouse antiques near Farnham. I think it's mainly painted reproduction stuff. I bought a few bits from Bourne mill antiques just off the shepherd and flock roundabout Farnham. You can see them with the garden ornaments outside. There's another one in Hartley wintney but I've not been there myself.

There's one in Barkham Ride in Finchampstead too. Supposed to be very good (and has a popular tea room if that's your thing). As a bonus it's having a closing sale so you might find some real bargains in there wink Never been in there myself despite being just around the corner. My skin is the wrong shade of apricot.

Bourne Mill's over 4/5 floors, has the full range of complete tat to some v.nice stuff.

Then you can pop next door to the shed place and feed the ducks.

It is very good, there is some "proper junk" as well as some more decent stuff. Didn't know they were closing, will go for a nose at the weekend

As does Wallingford (well, it used to, it's been a few years since I was there). Lamb Arcade iirc.


(I know that's Oxfordshire, but it's only about 15 minutes from Pangbourne.)
