Wilson’s Hardware & D.I.Y.

As time goes by, things tend to evolve and change with the the rest of the world. Shops change their name, get taken over, staff come and go and shop fronts sometimes get a make over. Not this one. I have only ever been in this shop twice over the space of about 5 years. Same name, staff (wizzardy old man), and old fashioned smells. I bought paint brushes and a watering can whilst singing ‘Let’s do the time warp’, in my head. General DIY tools are sold here such as hammers, nails, paint and gloves. I’ve recently noticed that this isn’t the only local hardware that wouldn’t be out of place in the film ‘Deliverance’. Maybe local hardware shops will stay like this forever? A handy place overall with plenty of character.
