Walthamstow Market, London

Walthamstow, London

Claims to be the longest outdoor market in Europe. A long stretch of stalls along Walthamstow High Street - clothing, food, household goods, everything. Functional and unpretentious.

Best time: Tuesday to Saturday. Saturday is the busiest.

Look for: walk it multiple times and see different things. The traders, the regulars, the range of goods.

Camera Settings

Any.

The Assignment

Walk the full length of the market twice — once quickly, once slowly. Compare what you find.
