which has been re-constructed as a typical village grocery
from the 1930’ties – a piece of living local history. Enjoy
a fizzy drink and an old fashioned gobstopper or a piece of
rock candy sitting on the bench outside overlooking the old
village pond. Buy also a bit of the past in the form of a
hopscotch stone, a cut-out doll or a similar item.
