Pics!

Take a walk around my town with me – bring your dog too!

Click images to take a closer look!

The popular Compass Bar retained the original shopfront signage

An undertaker that supplies school uniforms!

Not the smartest shop in town but one of the most interesting!

There are normally cushions on the barrels, but it was about to start raining!

A coffee bar cum barbers shop!

This old railway carriage is now a very popular restaurant!

.

I don’t think they sell babies here!

A proper sweet shop!

Antiques and cappacino!

You can play darts and buy darts here!

Those were the days…

    It was nice visiting. The Brickmakers Ale House is my favourite.

      It’s a great little pub. The beer is served straight from barrels which are in a temperature controlled glass-fronted cabinet behind the bar!

    Thank you for the excellent tour, Keith. Your gallery of images is superb. I love that railway carriage and the beautiful artwork on it.

    My cousin lives in Wales and is coming for lunch on Thursday. I am going to ask her if she has ever visited your town. It sounds delightful.

      I hope you have a lovely time. Do let me know, Denise!

        She has visited and described it as a nice upscale area.

      It really is, I often go in for a stroll around. I may even buy something one day!

        I’d be tempted to buy something every day! That’s my kind of store 😀

    What a delightful place! I’d love to take a stroll, maybe peep into some shops or even pick up a few things.

    A typical town with shops, bars, restaurants for people to visit. We don’t have places like that around here. Everything old gets torn down with new modern places as replacements. The charm in the UK is what is so special.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings September 11, 2026 / 15:02

      We are blessed with many independent shops and restaurants, some look a little weather worn. but that’s OK!

    Lovely trip through your city Keith.

        My pleasure

    So many interesting shops, etc, to explore!

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings September 11, 2026 / 15:26

      Thanks so much. That was but the tip of the iceberg!

    So may cool shops there!
    I particularly liked the colorful outdoor seating at the alehouse.

    • Keith's Ramblings's avatar Keith's Ramblings September 11, 2026 / 15:28

      Me too! They normally have cushions on them but it was about to tip down with rain!

    I could linger for hours just looking in the store windows. And having a beer or two. Alana ramblinwitham

    OK, my doggo was sleeping right next to me, so it seemed like he was with me on your tour. Thanks for sharing your neighborhood. 🙂
