These shopfronts create an interesting zigzag shape. The end shop provides the third home of Town Common Post Office. It was a short way southeast, on the roundabout, until about 15 years ago; it then moved even farther southeast to the parade at Fairmile. It closed down for a while there before being reinstated here.
