It is with great regret that we have to tell you that the St Albans branch of Quench will cease trading on 31st December 2011.
Several factors have contributed to this sad outcome, the economic recession in the country, the various moves the shop has made over the past few years and associated name changes, the reduced amount of space we have at Holywell Hill compared with our previous stores, the lack of convenient parking close to the shop and of course competition from the internet where customers find it easier and sometimes cheaper to shop on-line. The net result is that far fewer customers visit the shop and this has made this retail store uneconomic to run...
News & Notes (most recent first)
Farewell to Quench, St Albans: UKCBD Blog, 10/12/2011 - "SAD NEWS has emerged this week as Quench Bookshops have conceded defeat in St Albans, with the shop scheduled for closure on December 31st this year..."
Situated within the Cathedral building, the Bookstall offers a wide range of religious and secular publications appealing to a large local congregation and the many visitors and tourists throughout the year.
Current religious bestsellers are always displayed and there is a good range of bibles, prayer books and books to appeal to young people of all ages. The range of high quality greetings cards for religious and other occasions is acknowledged as the best in the district.
The associated Gift Shop is located nearby in the Chapter House. It stocks a good range of CDs and audio cassettes, particularly of choral and organ music, amongst a wide and varied selection of religious items, ornaments, jewellery and other gift merchandise.
Mission Statement The Cathedral Bookstall and Gift Shop operate with predominantly voluntary helpers as part of the Cathedral's 'Ministry of Welcome' to the local congregation and visitors from far and wide. We hope to provide a relaxing environment to complement the experience of a visit to this historic place of worship dedicated to the martyrdom of Alban, and to offer support, information, inspiration and guidance.
