BEING forced to relocated from Haverfordwest's Riverside Market has been a "blessing in disguise" for one business.

Cllr Tom Tudor recently visited Reg and Sandra Davies, owners of Time Is, a well-known fixture in the town.

Reg and Sandra, along with son Greg, specialise in watches, clocks and engraving.

He said although leaving the market after 33 years had been difficult, it was a ‘blessing in disguise'.

"When they told us we would be leaving it was horrendous," he added. "But every cloud has a silver lining. We're in a great spot looking over the river and the building itself is lovely. It's warm, and it's a much nicer working environment.

"We still have our established customers, and the passing trade has been great. We're seeing new people now, because they notice us when they come over the bridge and a lot of people didn't come into the market."

Businesses moved out of the market to make way for Haverfordwest's new library, currently under construction by Pembrokeshire County Council.
