Family-run second-hand bookshop in Blackheath.

Note: As of June 2013, the Blackheath Bugle reports that the owners are selling the business and that it's currently only open Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays (other days by appointment).

The stock ranges from cheap paperbacks (£1.80 each or three for £5, as of May 2011) to rare first editions. The fiction paperbacks include a reasonable coverage of SF, both vintage and modern. They also have vintage children's books and annuals.

There's a London section, a selection of old OS maps, and decent coverage of other subjects such as cookery, art, music, and so on. Kake, who is very picky on the subject of Chinese food, found a rather exciting coffee table book on regional Chinese cookery for £15.

Accessibility: No step to get in, but like most small second-hand bookshops it's quite cramped inside.
