Gillipaw's Journal

By Gillipaw

Barter Books, Alnwick, Northumberland

What a find. One of the largest secondhand bookshops in the UK.

Situated in the former station building, the old fireplaces are back in use, so welcoming. Loads of seating, coffee machines, and a delicious menu in the Buffet. A model railway runs around the tops of the bookshelves. Quotations all over the place. Large murals featuring many writers.

Worth checking out if you are visiting Alnwick, Northumberland.

We also visited Warkworth Castle (extra shot), and Alnmouth today. Enjoying great weather.
