Although described as an emporium, it has for some time been a resource for the Creator of Discworld as well as a creator of Discworld ephemera from figurines to digital apps, including several mapps and reference books. It began as Clarecraft, founded by Bernard Pearson and wife Isobel and had a working relationship with Terry Pratchett until his death in 2015. It has, however, remained visible and (irregularly) available in Wincanton, Somerset for some decades.
