Weighbridge second-hand bookshop

Nestled inside Cliveden's Gas Yard next to the Walled Garden, this quaint but substantial bookshop offers a wide range of pre-loved books, as well as some special, collectors' titles, kindly donated by you.

Books have been generously donated from far and wide, by visitors, volunteers and staff. From behind the scenes sorting to working the shop floor, we wouldn’t be able to do this without the support of enthusiastic volunteers.

Stuck for birthday gift ideas? Why not pick up a gift-wrapped 'blind date with a book'? Each book is preloved, and is selected and wrapped by the bookshop volunteers, with a tag to tell you the book's genre. There are choices to please even the most voracious bookworm so pop in and have a look.
