Only 2 pubs? Come, come; you can do better than that! My village had – according to the 1912 Kelly's – 4 pubs, 2 bakers, 2 grocers/drapers, 2 blacksmiths, 2 boot repairers, 1 butcher, 1 basket maker, 1 hair dresser, 1 stationer/post office, and, famously, 1 taxidermist! And that was just the tradespeople with shops – there were plenty of other tradesmen such as carpenters, wheelwrights, millers, painters, dressmakers etc. There was even a bank, albeit only on Tuesday afternoons. Communities were perforce much more self-sufficient in those days. One thing we didn't have was a railway station though it almost happened...
