Shop

Canal Central's shop provides convenience for both visitors and locals. Essentials are available such as bread and milk as well as cards by Shropshire artists and a wide variety of unusual books.

Our emphasis is on supplying fresh local produce as much as possible, the closest being ice-cream from a neighbouring farm. Shropshire, along with the Black Country area and other border counties, offers a wide array of high quality fare. Meats and dairy produce are a speciality with Traflach Farm, Ensdon Farm and Cefn Goleu Organic Eggs.

Canal Central also acts as a hub for other high quality local food producers, ideal for boaters to order ahead when entering the Montgomery at Frankton locks.

We have a selection of organic and fair trade goods, as well as unusual vegetarian options and foods for those with special dietary requirements.

Quality wines, bottled beers and spirits are available, again many of these sourced from within the region.

Sweets are sold by the jar, as well as in wrappers, there is also the attempt (largely in vain) to entice the healthy choice of a seed bar or halva.

Cards by a Shropshire artist have become quite a feature, there is also the odd book or two; an ideal gift from the area.
