Presumably the Hobby Horse shop moved from this outlet to the one two doors down, or vice versa, and subsequently closed – giving the impression of two identical shops, neither still trading. The one with the postbox outside was Anchor Road Post Office until the branch closures of Spring 2004. See Image for a wider view of the shops.
