What visitors say
I visited with some friends and family today and it was a delightful experience. There's a really nice heritage collection of items here that will leave you wandering for hours. A lot of the antique memorabilia is a real blast from the past and great to see as it brings back vivid memories that reflect how times have changed. The staff are wonderful and pleasant and the building is a marvel to look at too. Fantastic place. I will definitely be coming back!

A wonderful place to visit! My son loves anything vintage and really enjoys wandering around looking for hidden treasures, so the Antique Centre at Battlesbridge was perfect for us. There is such a great variety of antiques, collectibles, and unique finds to browse. The staff were lovely, friendly, and very helpful, which made the experience even more enjoyable. After exploring the centre, we visited the tea room and enjoyed a delicious pot of tea and cake while taking in the beautiful views. We spent a lovely few hours there and will definitely be returning. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys antiques, vintage items, or simply a relaxing day out.

Over the Easter Bank Holiday, I visited Battlebridge with my family looked around Nerd Base and the Antiques & Craft Center and had lunch at The Riverside Tearooms, on fourth floor. All fascinating and enjoyment to browse around the whole Centre.

4-storey former mill - plenty of parking and the best ice cream van ever in the grounds (Jack's - took me right back to the 70s as it was as good as the local van when I was young!). This place is immense. A bit tricky in the mill if you're a bit wobbly on your feet but honestly, it's worth taking care and making the effort. So much choice - mostly really reasonably priced and the best choice I've seen in a long time. Every dealer clearly took care and pride in their stalls. Then - go through the car park, over the road and to the other part of the antiques centre. Again, lots of choice with so many different things. On top of all that, there's yet another sections past the duck pond. Everyone we met were really friendly and chatting to us - telling us to go and have a look at particular stalls when they knew what we were looking for. Overall, you could make a full day of this place. We didn't go to the pub as we were in our way home but will look to stopping over (there's a campsite and accommodation there too!). Highly recommended for a visit (plus came away with some bargains!).
