UPDATE Don’t forget the Market on 22 June 2024. Six stalls this week.
You all know the Hare and Hounds. It has been on the Upper Richmond Road in Sheen for nearly 250 years. Licensees Will and Lisa are now introducing an innovation: a Saturday morning market from 11am until 1pm. From now until the end of July there will be up to five stalls for local entrepreneurs in the garden. The initiative is in partnership with My High Street App.
On 8th June the stalls will include
Local Sheen Artists: Rachel Hunt, an architect who has turned her eye and hand to illustrations and is especially interested in rowing; Juliana Jones, showing prints, designs and illustrations; and Penny Choo showing retro / vintage inspired cards.
Daphnis and Chloe Jewellery is selling handmade, sustainable jewellery.
Lets Social is showcasing its creative social media expertise and services.
BTS Beauty, renamed in 2020, has been on the Sheen scene for 25 years offering treatments for women and men.
Polly the Facepainter speaks for herself!
The Hare has a perfect space for this new enterprise and these local businesses deserve support. So go along and browse and have a free cup of coffee or tea before you retire to the bar. The first lucky few to make a purchase on Saturday will be rewarded with a free Allora Spritz cocktail to enjoy in the garden.

Hope this doesn’t go the same way as the Sheen Lane garden market which I think lasted for 2 Saturdays !

Quite so. But I think it has a number of advantages. The stallholders are local. They are not being charged or managed by the Council. The Hare garden is a nicer environment than the Sheen Lane Centre. The key to success might be getting the right mix of stalls. There will be some variety over the coming weeks.
