It’s Saturday so it must be market day. We decided to venture a little further yesterday – taking a bus, and two tubes
all the way to Bermondsey
We walked along unfamiliar streets and then under the viaduct of the London-Greenwich railway
On the other side, a little further along, we found Maltby Street Market.
Under the arches were all sorts of little trade set-ups
With interesting names
And stalls of various types of food. 
But this is what caught Mummy’s attention – deliciously bad brownie!!! LOL!
In between the viaduct and the nearby buildings, we can see The Shard, one of the latest London iconic landmarks
a contrast to what’s at ground level
And very considerately someone left us “Woof Woofs” a bowl of water
It had started to rain – it wasn’t in the weather forecast, so Mummy opted to stop for a cup of tea inside one of the places under the arches …
She had a cup of tea and a doughnut –
One lonely doughnut.
Share, Mummy? Too much sugar for one hooman is not good, as they have been reporting in the news.
Of all the eating places at Maltby Market, St John must have been the only place that wasn’t completely dog-friendly. We were told to sit at the table in the front of the restaurant.
On the whole, it is a very dog-friendly market. Adding it to the hundreds of places we can go to in really quite dog-friendly London! 🙂
For now, it’s …
Time to head back to the West End.
May’s comment: At dog-friendly Maltby Street Market in south-east London which opened in 2010, you can walk through with your pooches unapologetically. It may be limited in size but it has a lovely ambiance and picturesque due to it’s location under the railway arches.
The market is anchored by LASSCO reclamation yard. So all over the place, the spaces are piles of timber and decorative antiques and materials, giving the market it’s unique ambiance.
Nearest tube stations for Maltby Street Market is London Bridge or Bermondsey.

Hi Miss Darcy,
Glad to see you are still out and about having fun! I was a bit worried when you stopped posting 🙂
Best wishes,
Linny, Buffy & Riley
Hi Melinda, thank you for being concerned. I always try to be considerate and only post on pages when the topic is relevant for the page readers. I’ve stopped posting on the Spoodles Forum when one person wrote us and told us it was annoying for her and others, she claimed. But now I know there are others who enjoy our adventures. Thank you. ?
I’m sorry to hear you have had such a negative comment in Spoodle (Cockapoo) Forum. I wouldn’t have found them if it hadn’t been for you! Would it be politically incorrect for me to say stuff them!?
Please keep posting! I’m sure everybody else there loves to keep up with Miss Darcy’s adventures, and I know I’ve been missing them 🙂 I’ll send through a PM too.
Thanks Melinda I for one love to read about Miss D and Georgie’s adventures they are fun and informative.
…on the Spoodle (Cockapoo) Forum I mean!
Sounds wonderful
I love the photo of MissDarcy and the chap looking at each other. ” mummy wouldn’t share, will you? “
I love reading your posts. Admittedly I am a dog and London lover so your posts are perfect for me! We’re often asked why we keep going back to London when the world is so big and there are so many other places to visit. Well, we think London is a microcosm of the world. Your posts/pictures certainly support our theory. Thank you for all your posts.
I always look forward to Darcy’s blog (and yours and Georgie’s). It always makes me smile.
Thank you Nancy – your words are so appreciated.Putting a smile on people’s faces is all we can ask for. xxx
I’ve sent a note to Darcy on messenger May 🙂
I’ve responded to your PM. Did you get it? x
