Wellington Shops Closing

Out of the eleven shops that I photographed two have moved into different premises within the town. The building society has amalgamated with another, and the opticians has moved next door.





The loss of Woolies is felt mainly because Woolies was quite a big shop, but woolies never did present itself in a very inviting way, unlike W H Smith which is still there on the rail bridge.



Flap Jacks will be missed.



On this cold snowey day in February I'll think that the shops might as well shut their doors to the public. Wellington struggles to be inviting at the best of times, but when the elements hits like this it just can't compete with the temperature controlled clean and comfortable Telford tow centre.
