Old Shop B994 Aberdeenshire

[iaindyoung]

Here are some images from an explore i did earlier today. I don't knew much about the place other than it used to be part of the ex caravan site behind. according to some locals the site dates back as far as the 1920's - 30's and that the existing building was a replacement to the original shop which once stood at the opposite side of the road until it was burned down.
The existing shop and what is left of the site apparently closed around 3 years ago, but if anyone has anymore information or even the name of the place then feel free to post it up.

oooooooh the inside of the shop took me back to my childhood. My aunty used to have a tiny sweet shop in Ebbw Vale, and seeing the shelves, jars and light switches took me right back there again. Love the quaintness of the outside of the building too.

Nice work,

Sal

Interesting – having driven past here dozens of times in years gone by on the way to Kemnay, I always knew this as the "Cottown shop". There was a caravan site behind it, like you say, in Hall Forest.

Brilliant photos!!

Somehow the outside just doesn't look very British, reminded me of America for some reason

It's not British, it's Scottish.
