Alan Garner’s forthcoming Memoir – Powsels and Thrums
is available via our bookshop. No orders will be despatched before publication day (10th October).
Or why not pick up a copy on October 10th (publication day) from The Crown, 111 Main Road, Goostrey, Crewe, Cheshire, CW4 8PE between 3 and 4.30pm. A representative of The Blackden Trust will be able to take payment on the day for books collected in person. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to take card payments, so please bring cash with you. Please note that neither Alan nor Griselda Garner will be there. I would advise that if you intend to take up this invitation, to avoid disappointment, let me know by email contact@theblackdentrust.org.uk , so that I can earmark a copy for you.
We are very grateful to all who purchase their books from us; all profits help to fund the work of The Blackden Trust.
Shop
When you visit Blackden you can browse around our small shop and purchase books written by and about the authors who have lived and worked here. You can buy reproduction ceramics based on the sherds found in the garden and surrounding fields, made by potter John Hudson and you can purchase postcards of the tremendous photography of David Heke who took many of the photographs on this website.
We hope you will visit us and take home a memory of your day. In the meantime you could consider making a book purchase from our online shop. We do urge you to purchase from The Blackden Trust website rather than elsewhere as all profits from books sold in this way are donated to The Blackden Trust.
