History behind the shop?

We are hoping in weeks to come, to look into the history of the cottages that hold the shop.  I have been told that "Country Foods" use to be there in the early 80's, but so far my research hasn't proved fruitful!  If anyone you know has any old pictures or stories to share, please feel free, we would love to hear from you.

If you dont know where we are situated then its opposite the Barbers shop between the White Hart and White Swan pubs on Greenhill Main Road, Sheffield, S8 7RD

Look forward to hearing from you. 

First week of School Holidays over already?

Wow that went quick...what have you been upto?...Monday was a very quiet day for the shop, think everyone was just chillin at home, but then it soon picked up and today was busy busy busy!...

Dont forget we open tomorrow (Saturday 10am - 2pm) so why not stock up on the sweets for the weekend, as we will be closed on Mondays during the hols.  Will keep you updated with opening times / days.  Have a good weekend, and hope to see you soon.
