Mr. Arthur’s was built in 1897 by Waid Stead Bodden, and had seen many a storm come and go.

The shop was known as the 7-11 before it was renamed Mr. Arthur’s. The shop was the hub for buying kerosene on the island, which fuelled lamps and cleaned engines, among other uses.

Stead’s son, Arthur, took the business over after him, and it later became Mr. Arthur’s. When he died, the shop went to his daughter, Arthurlyn Scott, who greeted her customers with that same Caymankind warmth, until she died in September 2021.
