There's a report in The Independent:

http://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/books/news/christopher-robins-de...

that the Harbour Bookshop in Dartmouth, set up sixty years ago by the real Christopher Robin (of A A Milne fame) - Christopher Robin Milne - is to close, as a result of 'rising rent and falling sales'.

I guess it's up for sale if any LT members are interested ...

That's really sad.

Such a shame. It's not a good time for bookshops - The Travel Bookshop in Notting Hill is closing, too, after 30+ years in business.
