If you haven't heard before, Wincanton had the privilege of being home to the original Discworld Emporium. The shop sadly closed a few years ago. Now I found that the building is "No longer on the market". I hope the new owner proves to be deserving of this house, its history and the ties to Ankh Morpork and the beloved Discworld.

An older article Wincanton High Street Discworld Emporium building up for sale that offers a few more pictures.

I hope they keep the plaque at least.

Probably was a magical place to visit at its heyday, sad to see it closed and already sold.
