Carty’s News

Looking at the name of this newsagent, one could dream that it was owned by ex-​Grange Hill, Eastenders and The Bill actor Todd Carty and that he had retired to sleepy Maghull to live his remaining years after having had enough of the glitzy London lifestyle.
In reality though, Carty’s News is not owned by Mr. Carty, nor is it a shop dedicated solely to stories about him and his recent acting roles. Instead, Carty’s News is your basic newsagent that offers a large selection of newspapers and magazines for your perusal, ensuring most publications are stocked here. They also sell the usual array of drinks and confectionary at competitive (if expensive) prices as well as stationary and ‘pet goods’, though those last two are in no way related to one another, thankfully.
All in all, Carty’s News is a pleasant enough newsagent that offers you everything you’d want in a newsagent without being too mind-​blowing (but then again, what newsagents is?)
