A new shop selling "the most beautiful products, created by the most talented people in Hertfordshire" is set to open in Stevenage High Street later this month.

Thistle and Willow promises to offer an eclectic mix of homewares, clothing, jewellery, artwork, candles and more when it opens at the end of April.

A spokesperson explained: "In the shop, we will be supporting independent businesses and giving them the chance to sell their products in a shop setting, but without the expense that comes with that, by offering a rental space.

"We will be filled with the most beautiful products, created by the most talented people in Hertfordshire.

"We will also be holding workshops, as well as supporting community-based projects."
