I can remember in the 70's we had a proper iron mongers, wooden counter, wooden floor. Sold everything from nails to traps and a lot more. He was quite old, always dressed with shirt tie and tweed jacket, and shoes polished to perfection, and used to carry sacks of potatoes ( old size heavy bags ) over his shoulder to people's car.

He also stocked pellets and shotgun cartridges. As long as you wanted Eley Wasp and Eley Grand Prix No 5 shot size you were laughing. 😄
