Set on the edge of the Peak District in picturesque countryside but only a stones-throw from Stockport, Marple Bridge is a great place to visit and the Windsor Castle Pub is a wonderful community resource in the village.
We love bringing our quality handmade products by friendly talented makers. There’s always a great welcome from landlady Joe and her team, who has been running a fruit and veg stall since the first lockdown.

2021 Info for potential traders
Very limited availability for this event!
Upto 30 stalls. You will need your own table. Opportunities to pitch under your own gazebo, undercover and limited indoor stalls. Limited hot food. We’d like a Coffee van. No bar. (No TENs needed for off-sales)
I’ll give priority to makers from Marple Bridge, Mellor, Marple, Glossop and Romiley and look favourably on new makers just starting out. Advice and help available if needed. Don’t forget I hand-pick stalls so there’s as little crossover as possible to give you all the chance to sell!

We’re postponing the Worker Bee Artisan Awards until 2022, when we’ll be celebrating and rewarding the best makers at our events. Sponsored by Snapes Estate Agents
