Not antique shops
Some rather nice 18th and 19th century buildings housing a sweet shop, fishing tackle shop, and a cafe. Not antiques!

Lion Theatre, Horncastle
In 1988, the theatre was built from scratch by the then-landlords of the Red Lion Hotel, the Bensons, and members of the company. The areas that are now the stage, lobby, bar, green-room, and dressing rooms were historically the inn's coach- and out-houses; the auditorium was built from scratch between two of the outbuildings.
The buildings had been used by various local arts groups for some time before the theatre was built, but the company has used them exclusively ever since, and owns everything but the bricks and mortar of the theatre, right down to the kitchen sinks. The purchase of all this was funded by many local businesses and philanthropists.

Everyone is a comedian
Whimsical shop name "Hinge and Bracket" on a hardware store. Dare one mention "4 candles"?
