65 stallholders set up on the grass beneath Haddon Hall on Friday, with visitors welcome all weekend.
Brian added: “We have ‘good to go’ certification – we’re separating people as much as we can, there is hand sanitiser everywhere, and we have a safe queueing system at the toilets.
“We finally confirmed the event about two weeks ago; all our artisans were very keen to come, the weather looked good, so everything seemed aligned.”
Haddon Hall's Summer Artisan Market will run from 10am to 5pm today.
