Makers' Markets are held by us every so often in the historic Yew Tree Hall in Lorton (previously the original Jennings' Brewery building).
These are curated events where you can see a wide range of really high quality goods handmade by professional Cumbrian artists and heritage crafters; the perfect place for finding for special gifts, unique home decor, or just a little treat for yourself.
The Makers booked for the Winter Market on November 28th 2026 are:
Stuart Medland - local artist, photographer and poet.
Emilia's Soaps - handmade natural skincare and bath treats with lovely scents.
Quantangle - fabric creations made from beautiful prints.
Elvincrafts - traditional basketmaker and willow weaver.
Izajuelijewellery - handwrapped copper wire and bead jewellery, and pyrography.
Witchmountain - beautiful delicate cyanotype prints and gifts.
Cold Keld - contemporary hand-knits, natural dyes and prints, raw fleece rugs, and other odd things.
Phil Bradley - traditional baskets and hand carved items.
Tricky Dicky - hand-turned wooded items.
Beach and Pieces - unique handmade jewellery made from found seaglass.
There ARE A FEW TABLES LEFT for this date, so if you're a Cumbrian-based artist, crafter or maker (please note, all your creations must be handmade by you!), and you fancy a table at this or a future market, please get in touch for more info.
