The trade-off though, as you point out, is that the High Street features a number of shops selling non-essential frip-frap and gubbins, and not much of life's essentials. That is only something that has been the case for the past 20 years or so though. By the way, you can buy shoes here, I always buy my shoes here! Cheers...</p> Hi Roni

It always rankles that despite its wonderful transition status Totnes is not a location where poorer people can survive. Even the market fails to offer the cheaper goods that London or Northern markets offer. Even essential items such as shoes have to be bought in Paignton or even further afield in Plymouth or Exeter. My dream for the future is one of a more egalitarian world and not the one of middle class consumerism reflected in the cosy shops of Totnes.</p> My chief vision of the future walking down Totnes High Street was that the shops priced their goods at an affordable rate.
