A PLACE WORTH KNOWING
A bright little world of gifts
Colourful ceramics, patterned textiles, candles and small surprises fill this Fore Street shop, with a lovely excuse to find a present—or keep one.
Penelopetom makes a cheerful stop on Fore Street, with a changing selection that runs from artisan ceramics and throws to candles, children’s presents and kimono dressing gowns. Displays mix useful things with playful details, so allow a little browsing time. It is especially handy for a gift you can finish properly: cards and wrapping are part of the shop’s offering too.
