Sign of the times, Hay-on-Wye

I always think of Wales as a land of small towns, rather than villages, which are large enough to have their own distinct identity but not large enough for the giant corporations to exploit. Long may it continue thus. And yet, the world is never far away these days....Here are a few corners of such a small town - Hay-on-Wye

 

According to Wikipedia:-

'Hay-on-Wye is a destination for bibliophiles in the United Kingdom, still with two dozen bookshops, many selling specialist and second-hand books, although the number has declined sharply in recent years, many becoming general antique shops and similar.'
