In Knutsford, around the corner from the ‘artisan butcher’, between shops selling ‘illustrious menswear’ and ‘cruisewear’, sit charity shops that look just like any other charity shop in the country.
However, a step inside reveals a treasure trove of donations from the great and the good. If ever there was a charity shop bargain to be found, it would be here. CheshireLive's Jonathan Blackburn has taken a look at what the town's charity shops have to offer.
The window of the Red Cross shop is filled by a wedding dress woven with intricate patterns in pearl. Around the back of the dress, the label contains a RRP for the gown: £1,500, but it's selling for £550. A veritable steal. The dress also has a note urging customers not to touch.
