I can remember my mother taking me to The Emporium to buy my duffle coat. The counter staff wrapped it in brown paper and tied it with string - things seemed to be more"green" back then.

Its a pity the tower c/w clock as gone.it was a good focal point of the town

i remember going to the emporium wih my mam and was always amazed when the money used to go up the shoots to the cashiers office and the change come back down.
