Norwood Jewelers

I went to Norwood Jewelers in Ashland City to get my hubby's watch fixed.  I left with great advice on the watch, as well as a shiny wedding ring.  If you're in the market for new jewelry, if you need jewelry repaired, or if you need an appraisal on your jewelry, I recommend Norwoods.  They've been in Ashland City for 22 years, they're friendly, and they do good work.

They don't have a website, but you can reach owner Dean Norwood at 792-5107.

They are located at 606 N. Main Street on the west end of downtown Ashland City, just past the hospital.

This beautiful rural area provides a wonderful backdrop for the many stories and rich history that is a staple of Tennessee. The town squares, rolling farm lands and small communities bring to mind a simpler time when life was less stressful, neighbors waved as they passed on the road, parades and baseball games. Cheatham County is a community driven area surrounded by nature at it’s finest.
The Opening Reception is Saturday, November 13th, 12:00pm to 6:00pm at Main Street Arts (2600 Church Street)
