Happy birthday to us!
In August 2026, we celebrated the bookshop’s fifth birthday. It’s hard to believe that we took over the business almost one year ago, three years after opening The Wedale Bookshop in Stow. We are immensely grateful to the support of our local community and visitors from elsewhere who choose to support their local bookshop. Every High Street should have an independent bookshop are we are delighted to be in the heart of historic Melrose!
