2 Best Shopping in Yorkshire, England

This bookshop in a Georgian townhouse is on a street formerly known as Bookland Lane, a location that has been associated with bookselling since 1580. It sells secondhand and antiquarian books as well as new children's books, illustrated editions, old maps, and prints, largely of Yorkshire in general and York in particular.

With five showrooms spread over three floors of a Georgian town house, this antiques mecca sells furniture, jewelry, ceramics, coins, vintage fashion, and collectibles—Roman, Georgian, Victorian, Edwardian, art deco and more—from more than 120 dealers, who display their wares in "cabinets."
