Spotted in Derbyshire - a shoe tree!

Apologies for the photos not being too sharp - it was on a very busy main road, no where to park and a police car looking at us strangely!

This must be a local tradition in Buxton or is it a new out-of-town branch of shoe shop?!

(Apologies in case we have put this in the wrong section!)
