No, I didnt know the five shops had gone, as I never went over that way. Cos I went to Ranworth, thats were we used to buy sweets on the way to school, in the post office. When I in the juniors I was nominated by the teacher to go to the Post office to buy her stamps. Also I remember buying savings stamps from there, which we saved in the school. I used to walk across the field (Sedgemoor one) as it used to be open land at one time, back when I was a kid. I used to cut across to get to school.
