Yes.

Yes, there's a guy 1 mile from us that has set up shop in his garage!!
-
Yep. Many of them who make shoes for orders and cobblers.
-
yes in the town centre there is 2
-
Yes, and they do a great job. It is run by three generations of Joe's. I think Joe the senior is in his late eighties. Jolenne, is learning the trade (fourth generation). They also do belts, wallets and have a line of mail order adult items. It sounds strange, but it keeps them in business in a time when it is cheaper to buy new than repair.

Yep, one right around the corner from where i live, but the guy who runs it is as miserable as sin, so i try to avoid it and use one of the repairers in the town center.
-
Lots. Most reputed shoe shops take any brand shoes to repair and we also have small road side cobbler shops.
-
There is one that is about 10 miles away. That is the closest. I think there may be others about 30 miles away.
-
Yes, there are two. One is about four miles away and the other is five miles away.
