Holsworthy -Town that is a village

 Holsworthy describe s itself as a town and is recorded in the doomsday book but it's essence it is still a village.

Mostly its a friendly place,people say good morning,crime rate is low but like most villages it still has an elements of it you are not part of a click you are judged not to be deemed worthy.

The (Town) itself is is in disarray as we have like many no more banks,we have only one chemist due to the one in the square being closed down for legal reasons,the market is not what it was and at one point their was discussion of closing it down.

We have one major supermarket ,and two smaller  ones,3 charity  sh ops,numerous cafes,pubs,hairdressers.

The school are both well attend the college has a bit of reputation ,the local doctors is struggling to cope I think mainly due branching out too much.

The local (Town) council has very limited powers ,the place is generally clean and tidy,we are served by church and chapel,we have a skate park ,a local museum and did to sign of the times a community fridge .

Two martial arts clubs,a small leisure centre which if college did not exist suspect would close down.


We have limited visitors attraction s mostly ok drive through

Don't get wrong I love living here as I don't need a car or public transport to access local park,shops etc.


This is just my opinion
