Antiques Tree UK
This is a good general directory, presented in a very simple manner. Don't expect much information, though. It is mainly of use as an introduction to specialist dealers.
The mustard-coloured homepage is one of the simplest you will find, with an alphabetical list of collecting categories. Click on any of these and you will be taken to a list of specialist dealers, some of whom are trading exclusively online.
SPECIAL FEATURES
The News Section link, incidentally, is disappointing in that it only leads to current, general news items, not features especially related to antiques and collecting. Much more helpful is Collectors Reference, which leads to some genuinely informative links, even though the great majority focus on porcelain and pottery. Another link, Collectors Magazine, contained only four items at the time of writing. There is also a Wants Page, where you can fill in details of any particular collecting field or item you are interested in.

For anyone approaching the use of the internet for the first time, this is a simple, clear starting point.
