| Costermongers were medieval street traders, selling fruit and veg from handcarts (as opposed to the ‘‘hawkers'', who sold from baskets. The name derives from ‘‘costard'', a large five-sided variety of apple which no longer exists. By Shakespeare's time it had become a term of abuse, carrying the same implications as ‘‘barrow boy'' does today. telegraph.co.uk) | |||
