History

The quirky indoor market was originally built and ran as The Crown Cinema between 1912 and 1955, but now has
a reputation among shoppers and antique and record collectors as one of London’s secret gems! The cinema
seated 650 people and was operated by the Penny Picture Theatre Co.

The area has been ran as a market since 1955, and owned and ran by the same family since the early '80s, with

ownership and responsibility passing down through the generations.
