Intro to Gods Own Junkyard
Totally Insta-worthy, for influencer photos to slogans. This place is a blaze of neon, signs that is .. you have to see it to believe it.
Visiting
- It’s free- however it has limited opening hours which are
11am – 9pm Friday and Saturday
11am – 6pm. Sunday - You don’t have to buy anything you can just wander in awe of the lights and neon. They do have souvenirs like mugs and t shirts to buy if you choose too.
In there
- This is all on one level and there is so much to see, when you first walk in its very hard to take it all in. The more you walk round it absorbs you.
- Chris Bracey is the ‘ neon man’ and has been for 37 years. We were happy to be able to share in his passion.
- The rolling scones – a cafe bar joined within the junkyard which combines the signs with funky seating arrangements which attracts people from all sorts of backgrounds. It has a good vibe and great coffee.
