U.K. Suppliers
Many suppliers of specialist materials will only deal with trade orders. Those listed below are happy to deal with the public and most can provide a mail order service. Alternatively regular re-enactor’s markets are held in the U.K where many smaller individual tradespeople sell their goods direct to the public.
