**UPDATE: Todmorden Antique Centre is unfortunately now closed**

Todmorden Antique Centre has just opened – and we’ve moved into our new space on the first floor.

It’s situated at Hollins Mill, Rochdale Road, Walsden, Todmorden (OL14 6SA if you’re Sat-naving).

The fabulous listed building always had great antique centre potential. It boasts large, open spaces that are full of character – with exposed stone walls, fabulous beams and big windows. Lots of time and hard work have gone into making it more habitable.

Along with other dealers, we started moving our stuff in last week. It’s quite a big job transporting all the items, arranging, hanging, pricing up etc.

It’s quite enjoyable, though, so we’ve all been doing it steadily to avoid any unnecessary stress.

We’re upstairs, at the far end of one of the rooms. We have plenty of floor and wall space which is gradually being filled… and there are two big windows that allow plenty of daylight to pour in.

We have our usual mix of mid 20^th century loveliness, along with much older country antiques and vintage industrial style pieces.

The space seems to lend itself well to the various styles.

Online shops have their place, of course – ours is in its 12^th year. However, it’s also great to have a physical space where people can have a mooch round, handling and assessing pieces on offer. (Almost everyone that we’ve seen enter our area has stroked or patted this lovely old baker’s table!).

Things are ever-changing with items coming and going, but here are a few more images that capture the feel of the place as we continue to add more stock.

The centre opens Wednesday to Sunday. They don’t currently have a website.
