THE RAVEN Square Premier convenience store and post office in Alton reopened on May 3 after a £150,000 refit lasting two weeks.

Owner Victor Nagarajah said: “We are very pleased with it. Our customers are brilliant and they like it, which is very positive.

“It is modern and convenient for the customers, especially for the school run from 2.30pm to 5pm when the shop is always busy.

“We like to keep everything here. It is a typical one-stop shop where you can get everything you want.”

The shop also has a machine for customers to make whippy ice creams!
