Jane Lee's shop on Trafalgar Road
Angie asks:
I wonder if any of your readers know what has happened to this lovely individual shop. Are they closed for good or being "refurbished" as it said on the door.
The Phantom replies:
A very good question, Angie, and one I ask myself every time I walk by. All the stock is still inside and laid out - it honestly looks like it's just closed for a Sunday or something - but it has been like this for months. No closing down sale, no notices other than that it's closed for refurbishment - nothing. Ironic, really that it's supposedly closed for a refurb, since it's easily one of the smartest shops in the road. I can only assume illness or some personal crisis. Jane - if you're out there, what are you up to? Are you well? And when can we expect to be able to buy hand-made cards, curious gifts and glassware with goldfishes once more?

Can you believe that it's been closed over a year! And no it's closed for good, the word is that the husband has gone into property development and there are no plans to reopen, what a shame, it was one of the loveliest shops in East Greenwich, but as they own and live there they don't have to worry about rocketing rents.
:-(
Somebody still lives there though, as there is a lovely small scotty dog who regularly peers out of the door window!
Greenwich Lalas
