Antiques and Alike
The
Wells Trading Post - situated on West Street ( tucked behind Tesco ) - stuffed
full of secondhand furniture and bric a brac - it is far larger inside then it
appears - if you enjoy browsing old knick knacks than have a look.
Alcove
- Antiques shop situated in Priest Row ( adjacent to St Cuthberts church )
The Falkland Islands Agency Shop
This really is a unique shop - it promotes everything to do with the
Falklands Islands - if you want a wolly jumper made of Falklands wool then visit
- the shop waves the flag for these South Atlantic islands - it is located in
Tucker Street ( near Tesco ) - well worth a visit. Follow
