Last time I was at the York Rally (about 6 years ago?), I got a saddlebag support for my Carradice saddlebag from a chap with a stall there. They clamped onto the saddle rails and had an aluminium plate section protruding upwards and backwards, supporting the saddlebag via a piece of broomhandle (cheap) or Al tube (more) at about the same level as the top of the saddle but about 3 inches back. They were mainly aimed at Brooks saddles with no bag loops, and came in a separate version for each type of saddle. I'd like another one - can anyone supply any contact details (if he's still making them)?

What you need is a Carradicce saddlebag clamp or a bagman. See
That would be the Lord 'Kwicklift' from W.G. Lord, 4 Kenilworth Gardens, Newton-Le-Willows, Lancs WA12 8ES (Telephone was 01925 224125). That is assuming this address is still correct and he still making them and the other bike related bits and bobs he used to do. Last time he was at York he said the exhibitor fees meant that going there was not really worthwhile, but I gues she might still be doing them.

thats the chap I remember. He also used to come to Mildenhall Rally, but I haven't seen him there the past couple of years. [his tool for dismantling freehubs is good value, as is his tool for Campag/[censored] bottom brackets]
