Looking for retail space in Gloucester? Here is either one of three small shops or one large shop at the York River Shopping Center. Sorry, at the moment I don't have the listing agent or company.

The Stagecoach Flea Market, Gloucester, VA

A number of web searches for the Stagecoach Market are usually made as the Stagecoach Flea Market. Even though the Stagecoach Market is a flea market, the name of the business is The Stagecoach Market. The link for their web site is highlighted. This is a great place to find some real bargains in today's tough economy. Everything is there from fine antiques to everyday items at much lower prices than you find in the local stores to used items that other people just no longer need but you might. Besides, this is a more green way to shop.

Gloucester County Arrest and Criminal Offense Stats

Here is a site link that has the figures on Gloucester County arrests and criminal charges. Check it out, it's pretty cool. Gloucester either has a real low crime rate compared to other areas around the state and the nation or a bad police force. Frankly I am going to low crime. My experience with local police is these folks have always been top notch. In fact my hat off to them. They are out there putting their lives on the line every day. Sure they can be tough, but it's part of their job. When my vehicle broke down one day, the county Sheriff's office deputies went way out of their way to help both me and my family. I have never had one bad experience with any of them. Then I never put myself in a position to have one either.


There in lies the difference. If you are doing something you probably shouldn't be doing, then what do you expect when you get questioned about it? Give someone in authority a hard time, they are people too, guess what, you get what you give. These people have a job to do and it has a lot to do with protecting the majority of the county. Cut them a break if you are stopped for questioning. If you have a good reason for doing what you are doing, then there is nothing to worry about.

Billboard Sign, Gloucester Point, VA

Sweet Madeleine's Restuarant and Catering, Gloucester Point VA



No web site found. We have no experience eating at this establishment but word has it that they are good. I found a link to a third party site with a bit of information so here is the link. Sweet Madeleine's.

Tidemill Center, Gloucester Point, VA



This used to be a nice little shopping center. Now it's well, barely there. I remember there used to be a great feed and seed store there. I don't know how most if any of the shops are making it here. But if anyone has a bunch of extra cash and want to make an investment, here is a fixer upper that is for sale, at least according to the real estate sign anyway.

I would gamble a restaurant where the old feed and seed store was as it is big enough, but you are looking at some serious renovations. In 5 years from now when the county grows more, then this site should be worth renovating. Until then, ugly duckling is the word of the day.
