Jeremy Shaw's

selection of quality clothes some of which are almost
impossible to find today make this shop a favourite with
some of Helmsley's more famous visitors and indeed the
less famous with an eye on quality.

Ryeburn
Ice Creams
Now we're talking!
Definitely my style of shop. I can't say to much more
here as I start to dribble uncontrollably when I think
about Richard's and David's Ice Cream Emporium. Flavours
include liquorish which is an acquired taste but worth
having a go. Whoops I'll have to go now the computer is
starting to get damp!

Pern's
Already featured
under Butchers, Jacqui and Andrews 'food' shop is more
than just a shop selling food. The Pern's own the Star
Inn at Harome a Michelin Starred Pub (they are adamant
it's a Pub) so when they rotate the staff as they do you
can be sure you are going to get quality in everything
you buy. The have a shop at Harome opposite the Pub as
well and it really is a must if you like good food.

to find a shop selling and selling very well traditional
toys. Helmsley largest selection of Teddy Bears is housed
