Shepton Mallet is packed with brilliant independent businesses - far too many to squeeze into one post. So here are just a few of our town-centre favourites, all within a stone’s throw of Shepton’s Sunday Market.
From antiques, art and beautiful handmade pieces to books, gifts, coffee, food and plenty of unexpected finds, there’s so much to explore beyond the market stalls themselves.
Many of our town’s independents open their doors on market Sundays too, so make time for a wander while you’re here (do check individual pages before making a special trip).
And this really is only a small selection…
