This Summer The Mainstreet Trading Company turns 5!

In celebration we decided to create a blog to give you a little insight into daily life at Mainstreet.  In the 5 years since husband and wife team Rosamund and Bill de la Hey converted the former auction house into a beautiful bookshop and café, the shop has proudly received national awards, been host to some truly inspiring authors and more recently expanded to include a wonderfully eclectic new Deli and Home shop. Our community has grown with us, and for that we thank you!

If you are a regular customer at Mainstreet, you may have already read our quarterly newsletters, (visit the archive on our website), in which we offer book reviews and recommendations, recipe ideas, event listings and news from our team. Well, think of this blog as the expanded digital version of our printed newsletter! Keep checking back to see what we’re up to, we hope you leave feeling inspired…
