Halstead Antiques Centre
Prices at Halstead Antiques Centre HALSTEAD from Free entry Halstead Antiques Centre HALSTEAD is a family run antiques & collectables business situated in the beautiful Townsford Mill building in Halstead, North Essex. This year (2012) is our 27th year. Townsford Mill, which straddles the River Colne, dates back to 1740 and was originally a water powered mill, but eventually gave way to steam. It was one of the first Courtauld's mills and produced the silk for Queen Victoria's mourning gowns. Surprisingly, the mill was still actively producing woven products right up until 1982. In 1984 it became an antiques centre. It now houses 90 antiques & collectables dealers showing their wares in 5000 sq.ft spread over two floors of the mill. In the 80's, some episodes of the TV programme Lovejoy were filmed at the mill. More recently the centre has been host to the BBC2 programme 'Antiques Road Trip' and the ITV1 show 'Auction Party'. The centre is located at the bottom of Halstead's main shopping street, a traditional style High Street with many interesting shops. The ground floor of the mill houses Dickens Restaurant and Cafe Bar, so why not make it a day out to remember with great food and drink in the beautiful surroundings of Townsford Mill. Plenty of parking available. Open all year round, 7 days a week. Monday to Saturday & Bank Hols: 10:00-17:00; Sundays: 10:00 - 16:00 Evening viewings for groups and daytime coach parties by appointment. Closed 25th Dec & 1st Jan.
