(let me know any mistakes in this annual roundup)
Sad to see the toy shop in the square is closing down.
I always felt guilty about drinking in The Little Tea Room, as my father told me the tea were children.
Very pleased to see two betting shops shut (sad for people who lost their jobs).
Does the Smoke house in the old chemist shop. actually count as an open business?
Everytime I seem to go past its closed.
