St James’s

Defined by its four corners — St James’s Palace, The Ritz, Piccadilly Circus and Trafalgar Square — this grand and historic area of central London is best known for its art community and menswear credentials. But as a champion of independent retail in all its guises, it is increasingly finding new favour with those of us who question modern ideas of quality and value.

At No.14 St James’s Square, in what looks like a neat Georgian terrace, are the one million books of the London Library and the largest independent lending library in the world. Their policy of never throwing out a book, combined with keeping up-to-date with new titles, means the collection grows by 8,000 each year — and it’s nearly all available to take home. From some of the nation’s earliest books to contemporary journals, you can browse its seventeen miles and choose a bit to take home with you. A living, working, evolving resource — it’s the original Internet.
