The Grade I listed Piece Hall in Halifax, the only remaining Georgian cloth hall in the world, is now a centre for trade, culture, heritage and community, playing host to independent shops, cafes, bars and events. It’s also the home of Little Acorn Gifts, which owner Gillian Wade opened in October.
The shop specialises in early years gifting, toys, books, and baby clothes and accessories for newborn to 18 months. The carefully curated range includes baby essentials such as hooded towels, brushes and blankets alongside toys, creative arts and crafts supplies, educational books, and unique home gifts that celebrate childhood.

From rattles and comforters to crochet kits, greeting cards and decorative home accessories, the business presents unique options for every child and their loved ones. Wade plans to expand the store’s range over time and is working to introduce a website next year. In the meantime, you can follow Little Acorn Gifts via Instagram @littleacorn.gifts.
