This is the best shop I've been in for years

   Today I visited "The Most Marvellous Place to Shop" in Northampton. It had lots of interesting knick knacks. A good mixture of second half stuff plus cool brand new gifts and fashions. I will definitely be back.

   I think a shop like this would fit in perfectly with my system. Here is a cut from their own website:

A MOST MARVELLOUS PLACE TO SHOP COMES TO NORTHAMPTON!


A new shopping experience has arrived in Northampton. The Most Marvellous vintage, antique and retro centre is now open.

The centre is home to many individual trader concessions selling everything imaginable from antique furniture to vintage, on-trend fashion in a friendly and fun environment. Arts and crafts are also represented with local artists, photographers, potters and artisans showing and selling their works. There’s something for everyone.

The Most Marvellous company’s green trading philosophy is reflected in the fact that the shop -fit has been achieved using predominantly reclaimed materials and works carried out entirely by local companies. Owners Gilliy and Joe say ‘We wanted to do more than pay lip service to sustainable values. Wherever possible we have utilised reclaimed timber, signage and fittings- even our till area is made from a discarded workbench! The result is a shop that’s both quirky and lots of fun. The feedback from our customers has been amazing, they tell us they love shopping here. Most Marvellous is bringing much needed visitors to our town’.

The centre also includes a learning space where practical courses such as upholstery, jewellery making and flower arranging are held on weekdays. There’s also a tea shop open until 4pm daily.

Most Marvellous is located at 22-36 Kettering Road on Abington Square island opposite Guy Salmon Jaguar showroom and is just a short walk from the town centre and nearby St Michael’s car park.

Come and see us soon for a Most Marvellous day out!
