Cecil court london

This post celebrates 11 years of blogging full-time on the A Lady in London blog. It's been an adventure, and I've loved every minute.

Cecil Court is an entire street of 17th-century Victorian secondhand, antiquarian booksellers hidden in the center of London and is a book lovers dream.

While today is it known as Booksellers’ Row, it has a long and varied history dating back to the 17th century.

Packed with twenty-odd secondhand bookshops and antiquarian booksellers, it's no wonder Cecil Court has the nickname 'Bookseller's Row.'

"You see, bookshops are dreams built of wood and paper. They are time travel and escape and knowledge and power. They are, simply put, the best of places" - Jen Campbell 📚 Some of the gorgeous fronts of the bookshops on Cecil Court in London ✨ such a fun street to spend some time on, you can nip in and out of the shops, zigzagging your way down. My favourite was Marchpane, which has a collection of lots of old children's books ✨
