You plonker...they moved to king William Street about 12 years ago

Re: Is Accrington being dumbed down?
 

Doh, it's moved again, ie: it's now closed down. Finito. No more. Gone to bookseller's Heaven.

I did ask. I may look stupid but infact am only slightly stupid. I must be replying to you.

I'm sure there's a bookshop in rawtenstall, dunno if it's any good though.

I quite like rawtenstall, for it's size it has a good selection of shops.

Re: Is Accrington being dumbed down?
 

Seed & Gabbutts book stores are now a dissolved company since 2003 and sadly there are no decent book shops left in Blackburn that I can think of :(

Re: Is Accrington being dumbed down?
 

The only bookshop listed for Blackburn is a Christian one in Mill Hill.

Re: Is Accrington being dumbed down?
 

Since the demise of Wardleworth's and Seed & Gabbutt I think the nearest half decent bookshop is Kaydee on Moor Lane in Clitheroe.

Re: Is Accrington being dumbed down?
 

There are Waterstones at both Preston and Bury.

A Yell search for bookshops reveals these

I see there is one mentioned in Gt Harwood????

I did find it funny that teh sex shop in blackburn is also listed as a bookseller :D

Re: Is Accrington being dumbed down?
 

I don't know what to make of this???????:confused: I am a cider drinker but am certainly not a chav.. I also like a good bottle of red wine...... What does that make me??:D

Re: Is Accrington being dumbed down?
 

Yep, no decent bookshops around, I usually get mine off Amazon but enjoy a good browse in a Waterstones when I`m passing one. They usually do good business off me, but what about clothes shops. I have to travel to Blackburn for a work suit, now we`ve only got half a Burtons but if i wanted a tracksuitor a hoodie.......:D

Re: Is Accrington being dumbed down?
 

end of the day its all about demand

if the demand is there then i'm sure somewhere it would be available. i guess some people would be happy with that £4 bottle of wine and a copy of the sunday sport. but in fairness i'm sure businesses have looked at accrington and realised the money this area can spend in general isnt valid enough to open a nice top of the range wine shop.

bookshops in general are declining. esp with the internet and the easiness of the supply

but then again we're getting a subway!!

*hurrah!*
