Tucked down a residential street in Camden, Walden has to be one of London’s most beautiful bookshops – especially when the wisteria over the door is in bloom. The shop has been here for more than 45 years, and its creaking shelves are always worth browsing for out-of-print oddities. Particular areas of focus include literature and art, but you can find plenty of fiction, poetry, history and travel. Bargain-hunters should head for the cheap paperbacks out the front, while serious collectors can peruse a glass case full of rarities. Their booksellers are unusually knowledgeable too.
