More than a century of history has been wiped from the streets of Exeter after the last independent retailer closed its doors for the last time.
But current owner Martin McGahey, 63, said he has decided to move the business online as he wants to wind things down before his retirement.He said: ‘It’s a very sad day,I felt the weight of four generations today.

Thanks to the greedy real estate agents and landlords.
This definitely isn’t the only independent retailer in Exeter though.
