Thanks for the information about the reason why it was designed that way. I've only just found a great wool shop in our city's new covered market. We lost the old one and the new one has been located to a different area. These markets have an interesting history. <br />Linda Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10634839688042592781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2881535872477294850.post-35969321457607635692016-10-21T15:13:25.552+01:002016-10-21T15:13:25.552+01:00How amazing to see the humble store that started s...How amazing to see the humble store that started such a famous chain.
