Find the oldest shop on one street and ask how long it's stood
“Walking in only to ask how old the place is, with nothing to buy, feels like an imposition, then most people behind the counter are glad to be asked, and hand you a piece of the street's past.”
The Recipe
- Walk one street and pick the shop that looks like it has been there the longest.
- Go in and ask how long they have traded here, and what was here before.
- Buy one small thing if it feels right, and thank them.
