On the first Bank Holiday in May, a vintage car show with some additional local crafts and information about transport and 1939 was hosted at the Ruislip Manor House and Old Barn. The cars were on display on the Sunday, the same day as the local foodie market Duck Pond Market, which takes place here on the first and third Sundays each month. The food and craft markets alternate, and it is always a treat to walk into Ruislip in order to visit it and buy some local food and grab some lunch from one of the street food vendors here.
I enjoyed seeing the vintage cars, and some of them had information about the model of car. The cars were mainly parked in front of the Manor House and then lined up down to the Old Barn.
Of course, I stopped at the market to look around and bought a chicken burger.
To give you an idea of what is at the Ruislip foodies market, I bought a bottle of gin (Old Bakery Gin) that came with a couple of bottles of tonic in a set.
I bought a loaf of bread and fudge.
I bought hot madras curry sauce, raspberry gin, and marmalade.
I also bought some pies and apple juice.
If you have never been to Ruislip Duck Pond markets, you need to go! They do not have the cars every week because it was a special event, but they do have a lot of little attractions for children, such as a petting zoo, a table of Lego to play with, and other entertainment for families.
