Essentials
A small but perfectly stocked dairy (or convenience store) in Fernhill next door to the fish & shop shop. A bit pricier than everywhere else in town but fine if you've come back up the hill and forgotten something or just need a few bits. Heaps of everyday essentials as well as things you didn't even think you needed. Only a few minutes walk from this house.
