This is one of those places that's been caught in a bit of a time warp. One of those that you look…read moreat and think How on earth does this place manage to stay in business?. It's not far from Homebase or the town centre, so they've certainly got competition, but somehow they have got their own niche market, and good on them! I called in while passing just looking for some hooks. It's a bit of an emporium inside, but just ask and they'll point you straight to what you're looking for. It wasn't expensive either, which is always a bonusin fact it was probably quite a lot cheaper than if I'd carried on as planned to Homebase! Small but welcoming, cluttered but lovely. Give them a try!

This shop sells, as you'd expect from the name, everything made by Black & Decker. A lot of the…read morestuff isn't particularly cheap and sometimes you can actually find it cheaper in the large DIY stores, but there are often bargains to be had. Right now, there's an offer that you can buy any two items and get a third one for £1 - that's pretty good if you were planning on getting a few thigns anyway. The good thing about this compared to B&Q etc is that the staff are really knowledgeable about their products, as it's very specialised. They're obviously biased towards their own brand so you don't get impartial opinions, but you can get a good opinion from them between different models. Just a couple of shops along from M&S at the right hand side of the crescent, with lots of free parking in the outlet car park.

This is man heaven. I'm not a man, so it's not heaven to me but it's still a fairly good shop…read more While I'm pottering around in M&S, my hubby spends goodness knows how long in the B&D shop. He never buys anything, but comes away with all these ridiculous ideas about new drills, mice (?), toolbenches and all sorts of things that are just not as interesting as shoes. Seriously, the prices are generally quite a bit lower than the normal retail price, and you can pick up a bargain on some items. The staff are very friendly and helpful - I had the pleasure of asking them for some junk or other that I'd been sent for and to their credit they found exactly the right thing (staples or something) and it only cost me a couple of quid. A good thing to get blokes to go shopping!
