Antiques Bus Trip: Day One, Glossop

Antiques and collectables shops from Glossop to Ramsbottom

East of the M60’s series of seven posts for Catch The Bus Week 2016

Day One of Antiques Bus Trip: The Norfolk Arms in Glossop has historically been the terminus of the 6 service (today’s 236 service, which co-works with the more regular 237 service via Hadfield). Image by Mikey, 2012 (Creative Commons License: Some Rights Reserved).

Many of you may be familiar with the teatime programme Antiques Road Trip featuring Tim Wonnacott, Anita Manning, Charlie Ross, and a number of classic cars. Sadly, East of the M60 lacks the budget of Scottish Television’s series (seen on BBC Two). Instead of classic cars, Enviro400s and Optare Solos are the norm. Thankfully for Catch The Bus Week, there is enough antiques and collectable shops in Greater Manchester and surrounding area.
