Lockside Antiques, run by Evelyn Booth, specialises in selling antique ribbon and lace plates and original Measham pottery as well as interesting brass items, cabin lace by the metre and rag rug kits. These are all popular with boaters who want to decorate the traditional back cabins of their narrowboats with authentic pieces but they are equally sought after by people who want to start a collection or decorate their homes.

Lockside Antiques has a stand at some of the major inland boat shows but the stock can be viewed at its North Worcestershire base throughout the year.

As well as selling boating antiques, Evelyn has appeared as an expert on Flog it! when it visited the IWA Festival at Beale Park in 2003 and has appeared in The Waterboatman series in 2010, discussing boating antiques.

She has also had articles on ribbon plates and Measham pottery published in Waterways World and Narrowboat.
