Mostly Books have a smart new front, now the scaffold has been taken away. They also have a new website.

Abingdon does very well with three book shops, two independent, and one national chain.

Over the road Thomas Merrifield are also having a redecoration.

Thomas Merrifield recently sold (stc) a house, a few doors up from Mostly Books, called The Knowl. It has a planning application for change of use ‘from Residential Care Home to HMO (house in multiple occupation) including internal alterations to partitions and reinstatement of the front garden.’
