MarketLocal favourite

The outdoor street market on Electric Avenue, Pope's Road and Atlantic Road, where south London's Caribbean and African community buys fish, yams, plantain and hair products. Electric Avenue, built in the 1880s, was one of the first streets with electric light and gave Eddy Grant his song.
