The Academy

The Academy is a news agents just at the corner of Hillman Street on the Antrim Road. This established local news agent has been here for a very long time. It’s a family run business which always appears to have a few generations working behind the till or restocking the shelves. A few years ago it used to contain a huge collection of greetings cards for all occasions, although this have shrunk a little. The shop stocks all daily papers, has a large magazine section, a small range of tinned goods and also sells stationary. They went through a bit of a revamp, moving the counter from one side of the store to the other. I’m not sure of the point of this, but I suppose it’s been around for so long, they just fancied a change!
