Butchers

Pennywell Pork Butchers is reopening next week, but there won’t be any  meats, pies or sausages for sale. The shop, which closed in November last year, is being pressed into service as an office/exhibition space for the local Link Up project!

Link Up Muirhouse worker Julie Crawford (pictured below) said: “We’re only open for one week, but we’re hoping to fill the whole week with a lot of things –  you can find out about  the Link Up project, talk to members of Tenants and Residents In Muirhouse (TRIM), hear the local Time Bank Choir , have a look at our photographs of Muirhouse and add some more of your own to our digital archive and there will be lots of seasonal arts activities too. Why not pop in for a cuppa and a chat about what’s happening in Muirhouse and how you can get involved in your community?”

The shop opens next Monday and will open:

Monday 11am – 3pm

Tuesday 9am – 2pm

Wednesday 12 – 6pm

Thursday 4 – 9pm

Friday 10am – 3pm

Saturday 10am – 4pm
