Top of Page Brentwood, Essex

Wellspring Books (Pilgrims Hall Bookshop), Brentwood Wellspring Books (Pilgrims Hall Bookshop) The Revd Andy Neale writes:
We are delighted to see a Christian bookshop up and running in Brentwood after an absence of four years or so. The previous shop, which belonged to the Southend Christian Bookshop chain, was situated at one end of the High Street and incorporated a small coffee shop. However, the council had a road widening scheme and the building went the way of all flesh!

Nevertheless, the LORD had other plans and the manager of the shop joined the residential team at Pilgrims Hall and the dream remained alive.

Pilgrims Hall is a non-denominational Christian Community seeking to support the work of churches as a resource in all number of ways. Amongst that has been the opening of Rendezvous, a larger version of the coffee shop, with the bookshop following on its heels a while later.

The shop runs in conjunction with Southend Christian Bookshop with some familiar faces behind the counter as well as welcome newcomers too.

This was where Wesley Owen's overstocks went to die: bargains beyond belief! I always made a point of calling in whenever I was in Brighton and never left empty-handed: it was excellent! So very, very sad to see this shop's demise.

Wesley Owen Books & Music, Bristol From the closure notice posted by Wesley Owen:
It is with great regret that we have to inform our customers of the closure of the Wesley Owen store in Bristol.

The recent economic conditions and the shift to online and digital books sales have meant for extremely challenging trading for High St book retailers. So we took the regrettable decision to permanently close this store as of Wednesday 25th January 2012. We are aware of the implication of this decision for our staff and our customers, and are truly sorry to have to do this...
