Maybe we should rename ourselves Hyndburn-by-t'Coppice so that someone, somewhere, decides its a posh place to open a bookshop.
Since it holds one of the world's best literary festivals it's hardly suprising they have a plethora of bookshops.

It's a bit like remarking that Soho has a lot of sex shops.
