OUR YARD EXTENSION IS OPEN

We are putting the finishing touches to our lovely new extension which covers the old yard behind the bookshop. Painitng is nearly complete and we are adding more shelves to display our fantastic selection of books better. Pictured is our Manager, Andrea Saunders by what was the back window, and Tony Fyson, Bookshop Chairman in the new extension. The lovely stained glass window was the door to the yard - it is now a cupboard!

SHOP EXTENSION UNDER WAY

We are progressing well with our project to extend the bookshop by covering the backyard. Many thanks to our customers for putting up with the noise and disruption! We also have gas works in Higher Street which have closed the road in March and huge holes are being dug in the street outside the shop!

WE ARE OPEN as usual through this. Our windowboxes are blooming with Spring and the shop is full of lovely books. Come and  see us.

Update on Friday, March 27, 2015 at 9:21AM by Kathy Stansfield

Building work is nearly finished - painting and fitting out (by volunteers) will be done soon. It will be a lovely extension - we are very excited as it emerges. The road is open, gas works completed. Hurray!

CHRISTMAS GREETINGS

Christmas is coming and there are lots of lovely books in our shop for you to choose, great presents for adults and children. The pic shows Santa at Candlelit giving books donated by the shop to local children. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all our customers and supporters.

DARTHMOUTH THROUGH TIME

A new book, Dartmouth Through Time, is on sale in the shop. Author Ginny Campbell has matched historic photos of Dartmouth with new ones she has taken from the same place, giving a fascinating idea of how times have changed - or not! She is pictured in the shop with manager, Andrea.

Marcia Willett signs books

Local author Marcia Willett called in at the bookshop today to sign copies of her books. Her latest title, in hardback, is Indian Summer, set in Devon, about friendship and love shadowed by hidden truths.

We have in stock signed copies of most of Marcia's books for you to enjoy, including The Sea Garden (Devon), Postcards from the Past (Cornwall), and a seasonal treat, The Christmas Angel - full of local places and characters.
