Lewes Flea Market

Lewes Flea Market is a true gem for those in search of unique and vintage treasures. With an extensive variety of items ranging from antique furniture and retro homeware to vintage clothing and rare collectibles, there’s no shortage of interesting finds. It’s a perfect place for anyone who enjoys hunting for hidden gems. However, the market’s layout could use some improvement. The aisles are narrow, and the stalls are packed quite closely together, which can make moving around a bit tricky, especially when it gets crowded. The sheer number of items on display can also feel overwhelming at times, and it’s easy to get lost in the chaos. A more organized setup would definitely help enhance the experience. All in all, Lewes Flea Market is a must-visit for vintage lovers, but the cluttered and cramped spaces can make it difficult to fully enjoy everything it has to offer. If you're patient and enjoy the thrill of a bit of a challenge, it's worth checking out!

Good for a mooch around, sometimes some nice things appear, but we too many repros and high prices

Surely one of the highlights of any trip to Lewes. If you like bric-a-brac, antiques and curios, plan to spend at least an hour. There's a lot to see!

Lovely place to explore antiques , lot of collection. Would highly recommend.

Amazing flea market full of vintage treasures. The prices are really good and the quality of the product is also amazing. Always find something I want every time I visit!

Whenever I am in Lewes I always make sure I visit here. A large selection of interesting vintage and antique stock to browse. More often than not I find a few treasures to take home.

A huge array of all sorts of antiques, including some very quirky and interesting bits and pieces. Fun to look around and some good finds.

Lovely place with lots of different pieces. Good prices too.

There isn't much you can't get in here, in the way of oddnsods, bitsnbobs, trinkets and TRAUMAS if you're clumsy and reckless with your bag!!! As I well know.. I like to collect cups/saucers and there is a great supply to be had here. Prices vary, depends what you want. Parking very good nearby, if not full up..

Lewes reminds me of a cove, or a beach, where the detritus of ages seems to wash up and collect like driftwood into the numerous antique shops/flea markets/dress agencies/second hand book shops, and so forth. It seems like no one in Lewes ever throws anything away, they just covet it until it gets old enough and then they put it up for sale. The Lewes Flea Market has a similar feel to the Church Hill Antiques centre; set in a building that looks like it may once have been a chapel or something, there are rows and rows of stalls selling small antiques and retro bits and pieces. I'd say that overall the stuff in the Lewes Flea Market a bit more 'junky' than the stuff in Church Hill Antiques, although I mean that in a nice way. They jewellery seems to be, overall, slightly lower quality, and there are more bits of toot, like plastic ornaments and so forth. However, it is huge - there are two floors, and lots of little nooks and crannies. You walk past a corridor lined with books in order to get to a room round the back with large objects and furniture in it, which has two old bicycles strung up from the ceiling. It's very interesting to have a ferret about it. The proliferation of shops like this mean you could very easily live your entire life in Lewes never buying anything new.

Lewes flea market is veritable treasure trove of unusual items from furniture and ornaments for your home to statues for the garden to music instruments. You're bound to walk away with something you never even thought about, although even if you don't its fun to look around and admire the items on display.
