Product: Hazle King's English

Located at 28 Palace Street, Canterbury, Kent.

This building is one of the best known in Canterbury known as the former Kings School shop.  It was probably built by a cloth merchant called Avery Sabine, whose initials are also on the apex of the gable. This part of the city was home to many in the cloth and weaving trade.

In more recent years, the building came close to falling down, due to the removal of a crucially important chimney stack happily now restored, but with hardly a right angle in the place. This little bookshop is well worth a visit!  One of the external wood carvings could be the earliest depictions of a native North American.
