The card on the table advertises key cutting, being practised on an antique machine by the red-coated tailor's dummy. The Kimberley:now website entry for Plumb's reveals that “Although small, we carry a huge selection of hardware, ironmongery, pet supplies, key cutting and sharpening services. Probably the only shop in Kimberley that can be fully functioning in a power cut with a Victorian till and paraffin lamp.”
