About The Little Spectacle Shop
The Little Spectacle Shop is an independent, optician-owned glasses shop at 1 Cattle Market in the centre of Hexham. It puts eyewear front and centre, with a hand-picked selection of designer and boutique frames and a personal, unhurried dispensing service — a boutique alternative to the high-street chains.
The shop does not carry out eye examinations on site; instead, customers bring in or email a valid, in-date prescription and the qualified opticians take care of glazing and fitting. The latest frames and updates are posted on the shop's Instagram and Facebook pages.
