Village in a Shop…a one shop shopping experience. Having one of my university degrees in Urban Planning, layouts of cities intrigue me. Today I found a very compact village, so compact if fits in the a shop. Here in Grange Ireland, the local shop has petrol/gas, post office, bank, pension/government payments, and grocery goods. And just outside a cemetery and church, separating Church from State but keeping them close at hand. In a nearby village, they even provide day care in the form of Child Parking. This may be one of the world’s smallest shopping malls.
