Very impressed! Secure, free, off street parking as part of the premises and an excellent show room if a bit in need of more powerful lighting! Well worth a visit and only a few minutes of the M6/A38 interchange. So much more convenient to get to and park than Powell's on Carrs Lane ever was. Even if you could drag the "old mother" along to use her disabled sticker!

I visited the old Westley Richards works a couple of years ago. It was very atmospheric, but the chap who was in charge - name escapes me - was as pompous as they come. An arse of the old school.

I visited c1990, the gent in the shop was exactly as described and getting away from him was a pleasure. The gunsmiths upstairs were true gentlemen, we spent ages with them, it was a living museum, watching them regulate a double was an education.
