44 is a gift shop opened in charing high street which sell jewellery, paintings and accessories designed and made in Kent where possible, and I soon realised this lovely building could make that pipe dream a reality. The latest addition has been a surprising and beautiful range of umbrellas, which mustnt be boring says Elizabeth, and so the telescopic ones unfurl to be large and beautiful daisies,
and the walking-length ones are either covered in frills, or Victorian in style perfect for a wedding or just to keep cool on a sunny day. Scented candles are another popular gift, especially those actually made in Charing the bluebell scent is the nearest thing to driving through the Challock woods in May with the window down, and smelling that unique heady perfume which up to now would have to stay in the memory another year, but now you can enjoy it whenever you like! Sophie Allports range of bone china tableware and linen has gained a loyal following for quality and design the hen themed items are particularly popular.
