One of the reasons I like Canterbury so much is because it managed to keep a few independent shops. The Light hosue is one of them.They store some of the most beautiful lights and shades in Canterbury.

I'd love to have a wander through that shop. Lights are always appealing to me.
You're right -- it's the independent shops that really make the town center. This one looks especially cozy all lit up on a grey day.
I remember this shop! And I left Canterbury (well Each End, Ash) in 1985. I bet it's been there years and years and years.
A lovely shop, pretty building.
I could use a new lamp. This looks like a delightful place to shop for the perfect one!
Thanks for visitng my blog and for sending the link to John. It's lovely to have you both visit.
This shop is so sweet. The word 'light house' has great double meaning. They are such a symbol of safty and strength too!
