Paddington Markets

395 Oxford St, Paddington NSW 2021

Weekly artisan market of handmade goods and fashion in a nineteenth-century sandstone churchyard.

This guide to Paddington Markets in Sydney follows a minister named Peter Holden, who worked the organising staff at Woodstock in 1969 before landing, a year later, in the sandstone churchyard of a Methodist church on Oxford Street. It covers the young artists filling Paddington's terrace houses at the time, and early stallholders like milliner Neil Grigg and glass artist Keith Rowe, selling their work here before either was known. Look up at the bell tower architect Thomas Rowe raised in 1877, decades before any of them were born.
