Say hello to a number of new businesses in Agnes Water/1770
The past year has been a strange one with many changes for many people.
Here in Agnes Water and the Town of 1770, the past 12 months have brought us quite a few new businesses and a bit of art. Something new and exciting for our little town(s).
