• A hardware shopping experienceC T Wilson and Son was established around 1860. The CT, was Charles
  Thomas, a coal merchant born in Emberton. First coal deliveries were by
  horse and cart. Charles also ran one of the two pubs in Emberton, The Bell.
  Les (only son of Charles) and his wife Jean, ran the other village pub, The
  Bear. Some years later Les joined the coal business. Jean and Les had 6 children, most of whom were born in what is now called, The Bell and Bear. Charles eventually retired, leaving Les to run the business. The eldest child, Gerald, joined his father in the business, followed by youngest son, Keith. When Les retired Keith and Gerald joined as partners to run the business.
  Today the business is still very family orientated, employing 3 of Charles’
  grandchildren, and a great grandchild, together with a fantastic staff team.

The store is located half way along the High Street, with free parking outside
