One of two pharmacies in Dunmurry, it really begs the question (or rather, questions)... 1) Why are these two pharmacies so close together, separated only by a few shops? 2) Why is it called Irwin's Medical Hall? I think I have the answer to both. Bear with me. In answer to the first question, both pharmacies are very different. Irwin's is a much more traditional chemist, with cleaning products, a wider range of toiletries, and shelves filled with little bargainous goodies. Kingsway is a bit more like a discount pharmacy, but I'll let you read the review on it. In answer to the second, it's long, narrow and, well, hall-like really. Clever, huh? I thought so.* Picked up a couple of packets of makeup wipes (99p, but they're good...honestly), whilst my sister decided to nearly wreck the whole shop while hoking through a pile of makeup. The sales lady and I had a wee joke about it, and we escaped before the sis did any more damage. *Ps. I know it doesn't explain the Irwin's bit. That's beside the point.
