A fantastic photograph showing an interior view of the shop, prior to moving out, due to the premises being demolished.
I can smell the leather and polish.

I love this. It's so full of character.

Wish we could bottle those old smells, they evoke great memories. Thanks for posting all these wonderful photos.

I love Rickard's cobbler's shop in Hallgate because it is still old-fashioned and homely and the service and workmanship is second to none. We must try to hang on to these places.

Apologies, Henry7, that should have read "Comment by Irene Roberts".My "mouse" is playing up and I am using the little square on my computer keyboard to move the cursor, and it's driving me potty!
