Owners of a Norfolk pub have opened the doors to a new and "important" venture in an effort to help those living nearby.

People living in Alpington, near Poringland, have previously had to travel miles to pick up even the most essential items.

But now, they will only have to walk down the road to their local pub.

Naomi Shulver and Barry Gelder - publicans of The Wheel of Fortune in Alpington - have opened a new village store on the site off Wheel Road.
