MARCH 2024 UPDATE

We are settling in nicely into our new office, and amazingly had three dry days last week. There are one or two small signs that spring may be sauntering towards our battered shores and a few boats are venturing out from Fishguard Lower Town Harbour. Another bit of good news is that our wonderful old letterpress printing machine has arrived here safely (thanks to Jim and Judy) and seems to have survived its spell in storage since covid days . . . a lick of new paint and it should be up and running again. A new bindery (much smaller than that at the Grange) is also being set up. In case you missed it, our new address and telephone contact details are on our Ordering page. The Medlar email addresses remain the same as before.
