[citation needed] The community shop which opened in 2008 won the 2008 Countryside Alliance Award for the best village shop/post office in the South West of England.

Over 30 years later and the Berrynarbor Newsletter is still going strong both in hard copy format - distributed to the village and to over 100 subscribers by post - and also online.

The website offers a wealth of in depth social history, original artwork, stories, local knowledge, photos, postcards, and community information.

The site features some stunning original artwork by four highly talented local artists: Debbie Rigler Cook, Nigel Mason, Peter Rothwell and Paul Swailes.
