Potager (as was) to be...

[Nigello]

...a window frame specialist shop, just like the new one three doors down (on Forest Hill Road)!

It?s a real shame the old hardware store had to close. The people who ran it wanted to retire and their kids didn?t want to take it ovet so that was that, a genuinely useful local shop was replaced by something hardly anyone used and now something else of debatable use.

But maybe it?s indicative of what drives the local economy these days. I wish it luck, in any event. I?d rather someone was making a go of an empty space at least.

It's an awkward shape. Poor old Potager couldn't really display their wares (which were good).
