“I was delighted to help owners James Thomas and Katie Powell find another city location after their previous shop in New Canal closed just after Christmas.
“Forever England provides an excellent range of individual home accessories, giftware and bedding and the shop’s return to Salisbury in particularly apt period premises is hugely welcome at this time.”
