One Tree Books

One Tree Books is an award-winning independent bookshop established by Tim O'Kelly in 1994 situated in the market town of Petersfield in the heart of the South Downs. As you would expect, we are passionate about all things literary and if you can't find something to tempt you from our extensive selection in the shop, we can order in just about anything. Come and browse our shelves, and then relax with a coffee in Ginger's café to complete your visit - we look forward to welcoming you. This year we are celebrating our 30th anniversary, so keep an eye on Tim's '30 books for 30 years' selection below...
