There's a shop in Newcastle upon Tyne that I used to buy components for projects, repairs etc when I first started messing with electronics, Aitkens, it's still going but I think it's moved into DJ equipment but I haven't been up there for years so I don't know for sure.
There was also a place in Leeds called M&B radio and that really was an Aladdins cave of components, surplus equipment etc. They closed down a few years ago.
