| One of the very very few 'genuine' shops left. Very hippy, relatively goth (esp. the retro clothes, and the furniture) Very very cool shop. Nice clothes section upstairs. |

| this shop is a goldmine, sometimes u can find the best buy in the world, cheap and pretty, othertimes there isnt a single thing that catches ur eye, but if ur prepared to walk that far from the town centre its definately worth a peak. |

| recently been 'done up' on the second floor, after a short period of closure, I think the retro section's gone, but my memory's goin in my old age so it may still be hiding in a corner somewhere..
The clothing is pretty cool, but the ground floor and basement are still the best.
Did I mention they sold digerydoos? :) |

| Used to be a really good shop, but all gone a bit pear shaped in recent years. Okay if you're into sixties retro, but otherwise i wouldn't bother. Also, what t-shirts they do stock are horrendously overpriced. |

| They have started selling the odd bit of Gothic clothing, mainly womens I am afraid.
Also Spiral Archaive is now on the second floor so there is two good reasons to visit. |
