The shop isnt all that . It is like a chemists or maybe you guys call them pharmacies ? Across the street is Trufitts . I've never actually been in because i can see they are cutting hair in their.
Around the corner is Taylors and when you enter that shop you know you are in a shaving shop ,so to speak , brushes and creams all over the place and normally met with instant customer service.
Around the corner from Taylors is Geo's very small but a great shop too and inbetween those two you have Floris. The list goes on.
Thats my mini rundown on shops

DR Harris is among my top five favourites. Lavender and Marlborough I especially love. I get great lather, and I like the subtle scents.

It performs very well for me.

Very close to Castle Forbes 1445, my favorite soap.

C.F. 1445 is amazing. It is an excellent soap.

CF 1445 is another favorite scent, a lovely fougère, and I also have the EdT. It's hard to beat the performance of CF.

This is how DRH main shop looks from the inside (they have another branch some 200m further North):
As to T&H, you should definitely visit them, because they not only "cut hair", but also have some very nice things for sale.

Thats because D.R Harris is a chemist

Daniel Rotely was a pharmaceutical chemist any Henry Harris was a surgeon.

I have the DR Harris gifted to me from a WI shave meet a year or two back. I do believe the Marlborough and it is one of my favorite soaps. It does take alot of water to get going, but the after feel and slickness are tip notch in my book
