Welcome to the Barrowden and Wakerley Community Shop! We are a shop located in the beautiful Rutland village of Barrowden.
But we want to be more than just a shop - we provide a range of
services to the local community. Find out more About us Friday August 13Our Birthday cake was cut by oldest and youngest customers.
 Some of the attractive goodies on display as you enter the shop. Not everything stays in the same place all the time, but it is all still there somewhere. If you can't see it, please ask! What better than fresh bread and newly-delivered milk to start the day. Soft drinks and cordials are on the back wall, some chilled ready to drink. Dairy produce is in the chiller at the back of this photo. But come and see for yourself! But be warned! Various items might been moved since the photo was taken. We are constantly updating stock and display.  |  A view of the coffee and chat area. Coffees, chocolate or teas can be ordered from the counter, and perhaps a piece of cake too. Then sit and chat, or perhaps buy a paper or magazine from the rack to the left of the photo. The art works on the walls are all by local residents and available for sale. Just the thing for that special gift. The computers are there, and ready for action. All we ask is a thoughtful donation for overall shop funds. Now you can also print or copy a letter, laminate a document, or go on line. The bookcase to the right of the photo holds the swap area. Bring in a CD, a DVD, a video or a jigsaw. If one given by someone else takes your fancy, put the money in the tin and enjoy! Books will continue to be handled by the Village Hall, who pioneered this pattern, overseen first by Jennifer Bailey and now by David Bagshaw.

See www.villagelinks.co.uk The Community Shop is most grateful to the Barrowden Village web-site and its editors for their kindness in hosting pages for us in the past. Now that we have our own web-site it seems simplest for us to edit our content directly rather than needing to involve the Village's editors each time. Thank you for all their help to Caroline and Iain McBain. (Any errors or inadequacies in the web-site are ours alone now. Ouch!) |
