January 2021: in response to the recent developments of the coronavirus, we've now reduced our opening hours to ensure staff and customer safety: Mon, Wed & Fri 10am-2pm. This will be for the ordering or collection of books and there will be service at the door to help other shopping requirements. You can order by telephone during these opening times (01803 864 363), by email, and by our contact form at any other times (Contact Us 👉🏻).
