I have fond memories of browsing in the old Phillip Son & Nephew bookshop, which used to be located on what is now the old Barclays Bank premises opposite Ann Summers in Whitechapel. It wasn't exactly a Waterstones, but by golly, as small as it was, it certainly had some cracking books!

Anybody remember it it?

Dillons in Bold St was another bookshop I used to enjoy frequenting.
