People living in a rural Devon village will be able to shop locally for the first time in 10 years.
Bridgerule’s previous store shut down a decade ago, forcing people in the village near the Devon-Cornwall border to travel miles to go shopping.
But after £85,000 was raised by the Bridgerule Community Shop Management Committee, a shop has been built next to the village hall.
Holsworthy mayor Nigel Kenneally will open the shop at an event on Saturday.
The committee, which gathered the money for the site through fundraising projects and grant funding, has been working since 2020 to get the store up and running.
The committee said the shop will have a number of household and grocery items on its shelves and will also have a coffee machine.
