A new independent deli and wine bar has opened in Nantwich town centre, taking on the former Rodney Densem Wines shop which closed last June.

Edwards Deli and Wine, 4 Pillory Street, launched on Wednesday 29 January, operated by Kelly Woodnutt and Greek partner, Vasileios, of St Martha Greek Taverna.

The Willaston residents' new business is named after Kelly's grandad, Edward Jones, with the 84-year-old working hard to transform the unit.
