The Little Ripon Bookshop is a family-run Independent Bookshop in Ripon, North Yorkshire, 12 miles from Harrogate and a stone’s throw from the glorious Fountain’s Abbey.
We opened the shop in 2009, and in 2018 expanded into the gallery next door.
Our range of books is exciting and changes constantly. We work hard to balance new publications with classics and old favourites. We can’t stock everything but if you are looking for a particular book and we do not have it in stock, we can usually get it by the following day.
