West
Street in Dorking is home to some of the finest antique shops and high
quality retailers in the United Kingdom. As the oldest street in this
historic market town it boasts buildings dating back to the 16th century,
making it the perfect environment for an elegant range of collectables.
Complimenting this regionally famed antique centre are contemporary
interior designers and boutiques, outstanding restaurants, cafes and
two beautiful art galleries.
West Street has over 100 specialist dealers in 30 shops selling a diverse range
of items from medieval to modern day, including furniture, porcelain, clocks,
textiles, prints, paintings, urns, armoury and guns. The boutiques house a number
of top names including Margaret Howell, Vivienne Westwood and Nicole Farhi with
accessories to suit and shoes to die for!
Over the years the West Street traders have earned a reputation for their warm
hospitality to collectors and browsers alike - especially at the popular annual
street festivals. Twice yearly the shops are open till late for special events
that include live music, unusual stalls and of course plenty of seasonal cheer.
