I’m a bit of a junk fiend... I like old stuff and I’m wondering if there’s any recommendations of places to visit whilst I’m on my travels. Cause clearly I don’t have enough junk in my life! 
I’m off for a week in February and going down to Stafford to visit friends. I’ve been to Dagfields a few times but I’m wondering if anyone knows of anywhere else round and about that’s worth a visit.
Any other junk fans around?

It depends on what you’re after. There is a Cawardens reclamation place in Rugeley east of Stafford or a lovely place at Wolseley Bridges just past Shugborough. Also a great but expensive wine shop!
We’re up your way in Feb xx

I don’t know if the antique and collectors fair is on that weekend at the county showground, but in Stafford itself there is only one antique shop. Lichfield has a few nice ones, and Cawarden is worth a visit as is the place at wolseley bridge. Oh and Penkridge has an antique shop and auction house as well. X  |

Isn’t that typical! 
Are you doing something nice while you’re here?
Thanks for the tips... I’ve been to Shugborough before but didn’t know there was a junk place in the vicinity. I’ll add it to my list! |

We’re going up to Dundee for a change for our half term 19 Feb - a nice lodge with hot tub, kids & dog.... Frank wants to visit St Andrews & I’m hoping to catch up with friends. Calling into Edinburgh on way home so Frank can meet my family x
Shugborough is walking distance for us
Lichfield is a lovely small city about a half hour drive. I’ll ask around at work if any other places - Stafford is rubbish!! - my colleagues live all over

"I think I might have been to Leek before... is there a steam train there?
Thanks for all the tips... not been to Lichfield either. I foresee some day trips!"
Lichfield is well worth a visit. If you want some junk by all means look at my profile. |
