Internet trading has sounded the death knell for the last antiques market in Mid Sussex.
Peter and Joy Livett have owned Rocking Horse Antique Market in Ardingly High Street for more than 14 years but are closing on May 31.

Their lease ends in June and they want more time with their grandchildren but Joy and Peter have also been struggling with the changing nature of their business.

Peter said: "The antiques business is not the easiest business at this time with the economic situation and Ebay and the internet, which have hit us quite badly."

For a full report see this week's Mid Sussex Times.
