Witleys served visitors and locals to the town for getting on for a century.
It was an Aladdin's Cave, with books on local history, a vast stock of niche magazines covering everything from metal detecting to model railways and stationery.
The High Street has changed vastly over the decades, with neighbouring businesses regularly changing hands and many independents calling it a day.
