HUNDREDS of people descended on the London Cruise Terminal at Tilbury for an antiques and collections fair.

There were over 100 stalls selling medals and memorabilia, pictures, jewellery, furniture and other collectables.

Hot and cold refreshments were served throughout the day on Sunday October 12 and visitors enjoyed browsing antiques in a venue which reflected the period of the products on sale.

There will be another fair on Sunday March 29, 2009 – for further details of Hallmark Fairs see www.hallmarkantiquefairs.co.uk.

Port of Tilbury’s Cruise Co-ordinator, Lynda Viccars, said: "The Cruise Terminal is continually being brought alive by a variety of events and it was great to see so many people enjoying Hallmark’s Fair as well as on the landing stage boarding paddle steamer Waverley."
