I run a bookshop in Park Street. How do I get listed?

How this list was made
Every bookshop here is run by its owners, isn't one of the thousands of chain and franchise brands we check against, doesn't share a website, page or phone number with other branches, and was open when last checked. Spot a chain? Use “Report” on its page. More on our checks.

Find independent bookshops in or near Park Street. Only include businesses owned and run by the people who work in them: no chains, groups, franchises, directories, booking sites or lead-generation sites. Include ones with only a Facebook or Instagram page or a phone number, too. For each, give the name, area, website or social page or phone, and one line on why you believe it's independent.
