Dancers Ltd
Dancers Limited is a traditional family business which was started in 1880 by John Dancer and is now owned and managed by his Great Grandson, Michael Dancer, assisted by his son David and sister Janet.
During the 20th century, Dancers moved away from boot making which was its original trade into selling Menswear, Ladies Clothing, accessories and providing school-wear. The shop has an extensive school-wear product range and that, coupled with a reputation for service and excellent knowledge of the trade, makes it the must-go-to choice for all your school clothing needs. In addition, the shop has a well-renowned hire department for those special occasions.
