Steeped in history, this picturesque cobbled street has antiques, crafts, toys, stamps and coins, linen, lace and period clothes, collectors’ teddy bears, jewellery, silverware, galleries and more. There are also 3 great tea shops where you can refresh yourself when the shopping gets too much.
Don’t forget your camera, Elm Hill is a great photograph opportunity any time of the year and is always in demand from production crews. The latest blockbuster to be filmed here was Stardust featuring Robert De Niro and Michelle Pfeiffer.
