EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming photograph capturing the spirit of Coniston's Redheads shop, as Annie and Kate welcome customers in the doorway, circa 1907. Located on Yewdale Road, this quaint newsagents and souvenir shop has been a beloved fixture of the picturesque Lake District village for over a century. Annie and Kate, both local residents, are seen here in their traditional work attire, ready to serve the community with the latest news and keepsakes. The Redheads shop was not only a place to purchase essentials such as newspapers and postcards but also a hub for local gossip and information. The Redheads shop's history dates back to the early 1900s, and it continues to thrive today as a cherished piece of Coniston's heritage. The shop's name is believed to have originated from the distinctive red-painted wooden sign that once hung above the door, attracting visitors and locals alike. As you explore the beautiful Lake District, take a moment to visit the Redheads shop and pay homage to the rich history it represents. This photograph is a testament to the enduring charm and character of Coniston and its people, frozen in time for future generations to enjoy.
