Gary Anson has opened Ansons Barbers in Drove Road after taking a barber course.

He said he wanted the shop to be traditional, but with a modern twist.

Mr Anson said: “I was previously a sign-maker and I did enjoy it, but decided I wanted to try something different where I could set up my own business.

“We also offer a loyalty card scheme and wet shaves.

“I’m really excited about having my own business and getting it off the ground.”
