Specialist
Shops
It is the number and the high
quality of the specialist shops that Penrith
has to offer which makes it such a unique town.
These many specialist shops add a character
and charm to the town centre that is impossible
to copy.
To help these independent
businesses to promote themselves to a wide audience,
a Penrith Specialists Shops Guide is printed
and distributed around Cumbria, Yorkshire, Lancashire
and Teesside. The businesses listed below are
all featured in the Penrith Specialist Shops
Guide.
If you double click on one
of the shops listed below you will be taken
directly to their details on this page. You
can use the 'back to the top' link to bring
