Madam,

As a resident of Aberystwyth I often walk along Pier Street and my eyes are always drawn to the lovely little shop that was named Y Graig.

The shop has beautiful, late 1930s decor, with full windows. If only it could talk, I would ask why it has been empty for years.

Even if it became a charity shop, at least there would be footfall once again through its doors. At the moment it looks so mournful.

Whatever the reason for it standing empty, surely it can be put right so that once again it can join the rest of the lovely shops in the streets that the tourists in the town love to browse?

Yours etc,

Eric Payne, Aberystwyth Holiday Village, Penparcau, Aberystwyth.
