Exterior view of the A & P Store (south side of Merchants Square), from the corner of Duke of Gloucester Street and North Henry Streets, 1935. The A&P Food Market, which was later converted into the Craft House, stands at the street corner. Next door is the National Barber Shop and Rose's 5-10-25 Store.
When Colonial Williamsburg first opened as a museum in the 1930s, Duke of Gloucester Street consisted of a combination of exhibition buildings and commercial establishments, and several grocers operated small food markets in restored or reconstructed structures. The A&P Food Market, shown here in Merchants Square on the southwestern corner of South Henry Street and Duke of Gloucester Street, offered a place for town residents and tourists to pick up refreshments.
Today Colonial Williamsburg's retail store, the Craft House, occupies the first floor of the building.

William Waters Storehouse (Williamsburg, Va.)
Historic buildings -- Virginia -- Williamsburg
When Colonial Williamsburg first opened as a museum in the 1930s, Duke of Gloucester Street consisted of a combination of exhibition buildings and commercial establishments. Several grocers operated small food markets in restored or reconstructed structures. The Teterel Shop, housing the A&P Food Market, offered a place for town residents and tourists to pick up refreshments. A deed records the construction of a shop on the site shortly before 1767. The succession of owners included William Waters, William Holt, and William Coleman. In 1806, Francis Teterel acquired the property and it is his name that was associated with the building when it was first restored. Today it is known as the William Waters Storehouse.
