Generally, yes, very good. The bacon butties and cakes are excellent.

Indoors there's usually an interesting collection of stuff including vintage test gear - I say usually, but it can vary.

Out doors there can be between quite a few tables and a lot of tables! The stuff they sell varies from sale to sale, sometimes there is, to be frank, table after table of crap. BUT...at many sales there are tables heaving with VERY interesting gear indeed. Surprisingly few amateur radios usually (that word again) and some years some real vintage treasure. Quite a lot of green kit (ex mil), some bargains, some 'rare collectors items so prepare to laugh at prices' stuff. I think at most every sale I have seen over the years there has been at least one table of real vintage stuff and one year we had a 1920s crystal radio receiver. it was in excellent nick. it's not unusual.

I think most visitors regard wildhern boot sale as one worth visiting again and again.

See you there I hope.
