Belfields Village Bakery has traded from 80 Palmerston Street in Bollington since 1966, with owner Anne Belfield at the helm for close to three decades of that history. The shop bakes bread through the morning, bloomers, tin loaves and baps, alongside its meat and potato pies, which have built a loyal following among residents who treat a visit as part of the daily routine. Sandwiches are made to order at the counter, and the shelves carry basic groceries such as bacon and milk alongside the cakes and pastries. The smell of the ovens is noticeable along this stretch of Palmerston Street from early morning. The bakery keeps a six-day week, opening at seven and closing at six, Monday through Saturday, with Sunday the only day the ovens stand cold.
