The shop frozen in time

Go back to pre-decimal Britain in a grocery store where it's always 1973 and a chocolate bar costs four pence

- 

Tucked away on a quiet street in Saltash, Cornwall, is a store unlike any other in Britain - a perfectly preserved corner shop frozen in the early 1970s, where shillings once jingled in customers' pockets and decimalisation was refused.

The store, Elliott's, closed its doors in 1973 after owner Frank Elliott made a firm and final decision he would not adapt to the new decimal currency introduced across the UK.

Instead of changing with the times, Frank shuttered the grocery shop that had been in his family for generations. But what he left behind has become a rare and nostalgic time capsule of British life before the modern retail era.
