there used to be a corner shop on westwood street opposite saint mary mags church and wether this is true or not i dont know but legend or whatever says that a motorcyclist lost control and went through the window.Apparantly he lost his head which landed in the bit wher eyou put your basket when paying for your stuff.

i do remember the window been boarded up and the street been cordened off but as for teh accident i would have only been about 10 or 11 so it may just have been kids assuming or telling tales as to what happened
