Slowly we’ve been finding our strength at Sherlock & Pages. We hope 2026 can be the year we truly find stability after 2.5 years of dedicated work. If you’d like to help get our 2026 off to a good start we’re at sherlockandpages.com and in Frome, Somerset. Thank you

I wouldn't normally trouble y'all with a "prize binding" of The Complete Works of Shakespeare but I like this one for a couple of reasons. First, Midhurst Grammar School is local to us and second, how cool to get a prize simply for "common sense".

Welcome back to our #ObjectOfTheWeek series! This richly illuminated manuscript is a Book of Hours, a liturgical book that contains prayers to the Virgin Mary to be recited at certain times of day. It dates from c. 1455–85 and was donated to us in 1906. winchestercollections.co.uk/…
