Welcome to Treadwell’s

Treadwell’s is both a bookshop and a cultural centre for people interested in esotericism, anthropology, religion and spirituality.

Subjects? Paganism, wicca, and druidry, but also literature, history, culture and classics. We sell secondhand and new books, rare and unsual, as well as bargain finds.  We are a boutique-sized browser’s paradise.

  • Bookshop: wonderful books – in store or in our online shop
  • Events: talks and lectures on paganism, esotericism and courses to learn more
  • Tarot readings: we are famed for our world-class tarot readers
  • Information resource: for scholars, media or writers, and people making personal explorations

The inspiration for Treadwell’s is in part the intellectual salons of the 18th century, and in part the British Library of old, where poets, scholars, poor students — everybody – can meet and discuss ideas. We are open seven days a week, with lectures and events most evenings.  If you are looking for information on any aspect of Western pagan spirituality or the esoteric traditions of Europe, we can help. Ring, drop by, or write ahead.

We look forward to meeting you,

Christina, Kate, Dianne, and Livia
