Tiny little shop which is utterly charming. It has a plaque on the exterior wall stating: "This shop is the original smidy owned by the notorious Tom Lee in the year 1766". Sells good selection of colourful glass pieces which are ideal for gifts. Also has other articles for sale in small room opposite and on the adjoining outside space.

We happened to pass by this sweet shop and saw all the works there. We bought a tiny glass vase with blue glass flowers, a sweet little sheep and another lovely flat bird that the seller made herself. If I hadn't stopped myself, I would have continued shopping there, but I wanted to leave a taste for more. The seller is smiling, kind and it was pleasant to talk to her, I was impressed by the works she made and also by the works that other artists made and that she sells in the shop. The prices are worth every penny, I think I paid 30-40 pounds for 3 items, I highly recommend going in and renewing yourself with things that make your heart happy
