Clothes Shops, Shoe Shops, Fashion and Bargains
peacocks man for the best in quality high fashion clothing all at discounted prices! also yes i too remember the whiff of scandal at a certain clothes shop in ashton.
Try dressed 2 impress (4 the ladies of course)
if your a size 8 you will be ok us normal people have to go to the new next a robin park
Dressed to Impress is about the best one in Ashton for the girls, the rest are all but junk shops
dress to impress, the best ashton has to offer
If you buy your clothes from charity shops then your laughing like. Other than that there are a few but there stuff they sell is horrible.
ha ha ha! the style mecca that is ashton! pick up a bargain on the market, browse round peacocks for the latest catwalk fashions or pick up someting for less than a fiver in that shop where everything is less than a fiver, always! for you classy birds out there, you can get your hands on your Queens' pulling gear in dress II impress (wahey!) where they do a gorgeous range, all in sheddy lycra! that bouncer will be putty in your hands!
You cant beat Boardmans mans shop for a lovely Pringle v neck jumber and a pair of Farahs.
dress11impress for women
Er? Theres one in Greensway but I don't know what thats called.
all crap go manchester for clothes
Dress to Impress, but didn't that have that scandle a few years back.
Dress to Impress is alright for clothes and seeing as it is the only clothes shop in Ashton for women it has to be, and for men there is Boardmans mans shop
links in the greensway has some proper bargains sometimes but it has loads of manky cheap stuff too
Arts, crafts and such (Anything from pukka art galleries to craft shops. Trendy and twee both welcome.)
Not Just Books - fantastic new bookshop in Bryn Street that sells secondhand books, candles and oil lamps but ALSO lets budding artists display their work with a view to selling it!! Just what the culture vultures of Ashton needs!!
go to manchester or liverpool for galleries. both have good classics and great modern displays. the new tate modern on liverpool docks is really good. go get some culture!
that nifty little one on the corner across from la quilla is great! that man sells everything you'll ever need (for arts and crafty things, course!)
Magazine and Comic Shops
top ov greensway comic book guy (fat plays games love final final fantasy gives him a errection)
Loads of newsagents and places to get magazines from i think thats another problem we actually have. Too many of these places there are newsagents all over the place.
NEWS 'N' CHEWS!!! got bloody everything in there.
News and chews. if that man can't find your magazine, no one can!
The Knowhere Guide started out as a list of places to skateboard in the UK. It is a compilation of (unedited) information and views supplied by users like yourself. It is not a conventional tourist guide!
In most cases, the information in each section has been submitted by more than one contributor
(the credits at the bottom of the page list some, but not all, of the contributors) and some of it dates back to the 1970s.
We make no claims as to the accuracy of the information in the Guide - our only purpose is to provide a forum for users to share their knowledge and opinions. So please keep a large bag of salt handy and be prepared to read between the lines!
If you disagree with a comment, or information is out of date, please submit an update! The contributors come from all walks of life, and their opinions are bound to be subjective, so if your view isn't represented, please speak up and contribute to the balance of the Guide. See below in the 'Have Your Say' section for how to add your voice.
If we have helped you out or made you laugh you can buy us a pint.
