Leave a reviewWonderful anachronism: use it or lose it!
In the era of amazon and ebay, Pettits provide tbe service of a gentler age, with knowledgeable staff, goods instantly available and service to match. "THE PARCEL YOU TAKE HOME ARRIVES WITHOUT DELAY!" as Harrods used to say. God bless Mr Rowse,Champions and Pettits.must cost him a fortune. I hope his MD can find a profitable or sustainable modern model, not just selling off the property. I have some ideas....
