Bargains for clothing, household items, fruit and veg, much cheaper than the supermarkets
As in the case of Plender Street Market, Inverness Street Market represents a remnant of Camden Town Market which moved off of Camden High Street after the late nineteenth century electrification of horse-drawn trams.
In the 1940s the successful boxing trainer, George Francis, worked on the Inverness Street Market.
Until the 2010s the market was predominately fruit and vegetables. However, as the traditional shops turned into bars and eateries to cater to Camden's booming tourist and night-time economies the market evolved towards clothing, souvenirs, and street-food.
