Alternatively you can visit the Chilterns Shopping Centre, also in our town centre, where there is a Primark store and Wilkinson’s for all those essentials. Just out of town there’s also a John Lewis Home and Leisure store which ranks as the largest retail unit in the whole of the Chilterns.
Every Tuesday, Friday and Saturday, there’s a bustling market in the high street with some 110 different stalls.
If this all sounds a little bit mainstream for you, don’t panic! You might like to try Ruby Moon in Castle Street, near the train station. From incense and carvings through to Goth, punk and street clothing, the shop claims to “put a bit of fun into Wycombe”, you can find out more by visiting the Ruby Moon website.
