The shop sells secondhand books, and says it is one of the largest such shops in the West Midlands. The shop also sells a range of other items including gift cards, picture frames and local photographs. The building is Grade II listed and was originally a 16th or 17th century house and has been much rebuilt and refronted in the late 18th/early 19th century. There were also alterations in the 20th century. At the time this photograph was taken the building next door (No. 23) was a branch of the Cheltenham & Gloucester (formerly a building society). It was owned by the Lloyds TSB banking group. When the group was forcibly split up following the financial crisis of 2007/08 TSB was split off as an independent bank. Number 23 in recent years has been the Pershore branch of TSB (currently owned by the Spanish bank Sabadell) and that continues (as at August 2019).
