The assistant of the co-operative stores in Beamish Town ready and waiting for the next rush customers to his hardware department.

From candy to hardware, these old-fashioned shops sell it all.

"If we ain't got it, you don't need it!" General stores were once the hub of rural towns, where people came not just for provisions but for gossip and treats. We found a bunch that are still thriving, selling penny candy, groceries, housewares, sandwiches and more.

The place where I had to go during my first week in Oxford to buy my gown and mortar board. Quite a nice place. Very old and very well kept. Although one couldn't expect any less of the place where the royal robes themselves are made :)

These are some of the most striking facades in London.
