ARTISANS were the dominant producers of consumer products in the days before the Industrial Revolution. They were your glassmaker, silversmith, luthier, or baker. Here at Artisans In The Yard you will often hear the words - hand crafted, skilled, unique – as creative people today are still hand- producing objects of use, beauty, and symmetry. Oodles of airmiles and heavy carbon footprints don’t come into this. Just think about it! We support our local artisans wholeheartedly, with an ever-changing display of their wonderful products. If you want to browse for gifts, or for that unusual item for your home, visit our little gallery - we’re tucked away behind Shefford Building Supplies - alongside founder Adrian Goulding’s “Projects in Wood” workshop.

Our stock comes at reasonable prices, and includes paintings, jewellery, turned wood, sculptures, candles, textiles, ceramics, greetings cards, and much more. Come and see for yourself! We’re open Fridays & Saturdays from 10am - 4pm
