Can anyone recommend a good antiques centre around Crewe or Cheshire? (Or Derbyshire, Staffordshire, Shropshire!)

I have a very rare Saturday coming up with no plans, and I want to use the time by having a mooch around an antiques centre / emporium.
I'm always on the look out for pictures / wall art, but subscribe to the 'you can't look for art, art finds you' theory!

Recently I've needed to travel to Cheshire (Nantwich area) via Crewe and am CONVINCED I've seen road signs (the brown tourist attraction ones) around the Crewe area for an antiques centre.

I've googled but all that comes up is the Dragfield one of Jonny Vegas fame but it's definitely not that one.

Can anyone help please or advise of any other antique emporium that are worthy of my precious Saturday? ! Have done the Pear Mill one near Stockport which I loved.

Ideally Derbyshire, Shropshire, Cheshire, Staffordshire.

Thanks in advance 🙂

Are you sure you don’t mean Dagfields? That is definitely what is signposted in that area and it is the biggest in the northwest.

Bygone Times is really good but its in Chorley so may be a bit too far.

Oh maybe it is then!
Do you know what it's like? Is it worth an hours drive?! Subjective I know!

Yes, it's a collection of little antiques shops selling all manner of toys, knick knacks, jewellery etc.. You're not likely to find priceless heirlooms or Faberge eggs, just nice little things that you probably once saw in your grandma's house.
