I visited a few weeks ago for the first time and was surprised how dead the town was and somewhat down at heel.

One cafe owner on the Main Street said he was only opening on three weekdays due to lack of passing custom and on one day he’d counted only 11 people go past his very nice cafe in a whole day.

It’s a bit too “Blackpool” for me down by the shore.
