Whilst driving up for our holiday we decided to do our usual pre holiday bookshop stop over at Saffron Walden to visit @hartsbooks and it did not disappoint! It was the perfect place to spend the rainy Saturday afternoon browsing their bookshelves. They had a brilliant collection, for adults and children alike, and will definitely visit again the next time I'm in the area.

I picked up In the Garden: Essays on Nature and Growing. It was the perfect read to sit with on the patio with a beautiful countryside view over this weekend. @booklad picked up Before the Coffee Gets Cold, which is a bonus as I can't wait to read that too ;)

Does your dog deserve a night out? YES!!! Great!!

Does your dog deserve a night out? YES!!! Great!! Bring them along to our 'Dog Hearted' Event on the 25th of May. Join us and four of the book's contributors to discuss an anthology that's sometimes toothy, sometimes bloody and sometimes gentle; much like dogs. £5 for humans, dogs free!

Repost • @suemaltby Hart’s Book shop, King Street, Saffron Walden. Extending my shopfront series portraits to Saffron Walden, this is first of many delightful, colourful shops that adorn the medieval streets of SW. I love the raspberry pink of the exterior paintwork.

Repost • @lovesaffronwaldenessex Our wonderful local independent book shop @hartsbooks had the honour of hosting @jamieoliver @penguinukbooks new book launch last week. Attended by many local children, the launch saw Jamie take questions from the kids and talk about his new book - Billy & The Giant Adventure. We can’t wait to read it, Jamie 🙌 and from the looks of it, neither can the children 👍🌟

Repost • @thebookboy Throwback to visiting the gorgeous @hartsbooks a few weeks ago!

One of my favourite things to do whenever I go somewhere new is to visit the local bookshop, especially it is as beautiful as this 😍.

What section do you head to first in a bookshop? I used to always go straight to the classics, but nowadays I tend to go to the new releases first and then browse classics, fantasy and crime 😊.

If you had a bookshop what would you call it?

We love this!
Repost • @amandabanhamceramics Further to my post about making the independent shops of Saffron Walden and spurred on by your enthusiasm for this project I have made @hartsbooks and @bluesaffronwalden. They are both now drying in the studio and will be fired and glazed and fired again in a few weeks time.

I am aiming to make a few shops a week and then fire them altogether.

Cafés and restaurants will be made as a different collection after this one as there are so many.

Thank you so much for all your encouragement and enthusiasm for this project I am so excited about seeing all the independent shops of Saffron Walden together.
