Stringers is a local family business who used to have a paint shop in the middle of town. The moved here, and re-styled the retail operation as "Home Decorating Centre", retaining the "Stringers" name for contract painting work. The premises close in March at the start of the Covid-19 shutdown, but the contractors are still working, and they offer a call-and-collect retail operation which allows some level of sales without any human contact at all. The painted sheet reads "car park closed" and the notice next to the gate says they are open for collection only, and asks you to telephone to order.
