Burway Books
Church Stretton Shropshire UK
"A
wonderful bookshop with very helpful, courteous and knowledgeable
staff."

"A truly independent shop in an age of otherwise
mass market "stuff".
Recently shortlisted for
The Aurum Independent Bookshop of The Year 2008, Ros
Ephraim, proprietress, has run this shop for 35 years and intends to
spend "the next 20 years still doing it" so that's about as committed
to books as it gets and her staff are equally enthusiastic.
You
will find, of course, a large selection of local titles, books on the
Church Stretton and South Shropshire area and beyond, its history,
legends and literature.
And
. . . . . you can also access any main market title which, if not in
stock, can be got for you "usually within 24 hours" which is "service
par-excellence" is it not?
Ros
also organises regular author book signing sessions, so if you are in
the area why not enjoy an entertaining and very cordial evening at one
of them?
And
then there's the not inconsiderable effort and creativity that goes
into the window displays when focusing on particular book launches and
significant book-related events - impressive, visually, and in terms of
personal energy and effort.
Also
at the shop is an interesting local Art Gallery with world class
paintings for sale from a number of Art Books sold in the shop and, if
you are a visitor to the area, you can even order your own private
commissioned painting of any aspect of the beautiful surrounding area.
During
your visit to the town why not visit the bookshop and enjoy a truly
welcoming experience and buy books to take away and remind you of your
time spent here.
One of the truly
memorable shops on the town to visit."
