Default UK electronics bits/ junk shops?

I don't know of any small independent operations with a walk-in shop any
more
GWM Radio Ltd,Worthing;Techno Trade,Fareham ; Forum Stores part of
Southampton University no more; Greenweld, Southampton (trading name
continues ); Fraser Electronics, Southsea seem to be all gone.
Budgie / Kaytronic Southampton is still there but other than what is in the
window I don't know what he has, I don't think he does either.
Anyone know of any shops or even regular market stalls anywhere in the UK
still (my interest got started with a regular market pitch with electornic
surplus when a little kid). Hamfest/Radio rally sites once a year , around
the country seem to be the only hands-on outlets these days
