Reviews
Excellent local book shop. Came in with my seven year old son and there was plenty for both of us. The owner was a very friendly chap and had a good knowledge of not only the boring history books I like but the books my son enjoys too. Will absolutely visit again.
Absolutely amazing bookshop! I stumbled across this website whilst looking for a book to buy for a late Christmas present and ended up buying multiple books for myself and a friend of mine. The prices are just amazing, I bought 3 books all in great condition for the price of £12 including postage. The fine detail of categories and ease of access of the website was impeccable. I would definitely recommend this.
Lovely to have a local second hand book shop and this one has a good selection and storage with more, so if you don't see what you want, ask or check the website. They also take part in book voucher scheme and sell great cards and wrapping paper.
More than a shop, this place is an institution. Run by real knowledgable enthusiasts, full of books you didn’t know you needed and beautiful cards. The basement has a great selection of mainly second hand records, CDs and cassettes - a great breadth of genres and not just the same names you see all over. There are some newer releases, always a good selection of reissues and Finders Keepers. The pricing is very generous too. The world needs more places like this.
Ordered a book on Wednesday December 4th (through Abebooks). It arrived this morning (December 7th) at 10.30 a.m. in excellent condition. Cannot praise them highly enough.
