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.
