Issue 13 · London Curiosities · March 30, 2009

Established in 1984, Holloways of Ludlow is located in the historic market town of Ludlow in South Shropshire and is run by Mark Holloway, son of the founders. Holloways "aims to take the hassle out of home renovation. We offer the very best fixtures and fittings for the home, from kitchens to flooring, from ironmongery to radiators. We look at the quality of design, the quality of the materials and manufacturing, and finally at value for money." Holloways has three showrooms, offering everything from sample pots of Farrow & Ball paint to light switch plate covers and including the full range of Bestlite, Ballfinger, and Anglepoise lighting.
