Norfolk's Pie Man opened on Saturday morning on Station Road, Sheringham, where pet shop Claws and Paws, which closed in September last year after trading from the location for 20 years, used to be.

The shop will be run by Anthony and Bridget Mattocks, who will move their business into the shop having traded on different markets.

Mrs Mattocks said: 'It's a very exciting time for us. We already have a local customer base and it's a great place to put our produce.

'It's a very prominent place on the high street. It's a very good location and we don't want it empty. It's such a good place and we're proud to take it up.'

Norfolk's Pie Man will sell hot and cold pies, sausage rolls and pasties.
