Midsomer Norton High Street

 Looking very halloweenie at the moment - come and visit Midsomer Norton - it's great. 

A few shops in the High Street. This is a really useful model shop 'Signals' that is mainly aimed at the railway modellers but they also have other things. Webpage here
This is the Savoy rooms - known locally as Bob's Palaise as it used to hold gigs and dances. Bands like the Swinging Blue Jeans, the Tornadoes and Vince Taylor played here back in the day. Now houses a number of businesses - a gym, a nightclub Fat Sams or Fatties as it is known. There is a late night fast food place called the Charcoal Grill or Charky gees.  let's not forget the comic book shop that is Celia's Place, and Magpie Vintage a great shop full of interesting things.
Midsomer Norton Town hall. They used to screen currentish films until the pandemic.





In the same building Magpie vintage who have a great window display as they organised a pumpkin trail of MSN shops and it has been successful.
