A dialect form of 'stallenger' or 'stallinger', referring to a market trader who rented a stall. In some English dialect records the word also applied to an itinerant huckster who set up without a proper licence, making it slightly pejorative — a borderline legitimate pedlar.

Every Friday the square filled with stallingers selling everything from ribbons to live chickens.
