Geena’s Bow-K - and the renaissance of Wellington Road

Print

ashtononribble.com welcomes a new flower and gift shop to Wellington Road, Ashton. Geena’s Bow-K offers flowers, gifts, cards and a range of party accessories. They also offer a balloon decorating service.

The opening of Geena’s Bow-K is the latest of a series of positive developments on a shopping street which, as recently as 10 years ago, could have been written off altogether. Ever since the redevelopment of Ashton Methodist’s church complex, giving Wellington Road a mini-public square and some handsome flats, the area has gone from strength to strength.

(Ashton Methodist church, recently redeveloped)

A new hairdresser has recently opened, whilst the sandwich shop, two of the grocery stores and St Catherine’s book shop have all been given a face lift in recent years.

Aquarius

One store which will be missed is the Aquarius clothes shop, which closed its door for the last time early in 2009. Whilst the shop could have lain empty for years, however, even this building has been sensitively redeveloped, having been turned into two houses.

Not all is perfect on Wellington Road. One of the shops is still empty and is somewhat of a blight on an area which has only improved in the last few years.

Geena’s Bow-K

Geena’s Bow-K is open from 9.30-4.30 Mon-Sat. They are happy to open on Sundays on request and will cater for any event: just ask!
