“I was extremely pleased with the shop and I am very impressed by the products.
“Talking to other traders, they were all extremely busy on Saturday. Whether that was on the back of Turner’s Pies I don’t know.
“But there really was a whole buzz about the village on Saturday. It had a great community feel to it, with people coming out and chatting.”
