The Stables Market is the largest section of Camden Market. The market has been built in the former Midland Railway stables and horse hospital. Many of the stalls and shops are set into huge arches in railway viaducts. It is a mixture of indoor and outdoor shops and stalls, some of them permanent, others hired by the day. Chain stores are not permitted. Like most of the other markets with Camden Market, the Stables Market has many clothes stalls. It is also the main home of furniture stores in the Markets, and many household goods and decorative items are also sold, many of them hand-made, and often ethnically influenced. Some of the goods are second hand. Another focus is on clothing and art pieces for alternative sub-cultures such as goths and cyber-goths. Two of the more famous of these shops is Black Rose, which caters for goths, with items for sale such as coffin-shaped handbags, and Cyberdog, which houses a huge range of neon PVC and rubber clothing. Whilst the Stables Market, and the Camden markets generally have their roots in alternative sub-cultures, tourist numbers are so high that Camden Town tube station is very busy especially on Sunday afternoons. It really was very gloomy in there, and all I did to this pic was to lighten it a little. Perhaps I was blessed to be there on a relatively quiet Monday morning, but now I'm wondering if my sheepskin coat, (which has already paid for itself by the way!) was also second hand! Ah well, at least the label says 'Regent Street'! Hope you enjoy the read as much as I enjoyed my wanderings there.
