Store description

The Clock Bookshop is a valuable resource for book lovers in the heart of the Fens with funds raised from book sales being donated to 'The Octavia Hill Birthplace House Trust' charity in Wisbech. Octavia Hill was the driving force and treasurer of the influential Kyrle Society sharing the view 'books for all'. It therefore feels appropriate that we extend our 'books for all' maxim by not only selling a range of quality books in our Wisbech bookshop but also rare, out of print and antiquarian books online.
