History

Judd Books was originally founded within premises on Judd Street, London - hence its name. It opened a new shop on Marchmont Street, London and for a time operated two stores. Eventually the Judd Street store closed and their sole premises remains on Marchmont Street to this day.^[4]

In 2008, the Guardian outlined Judd Books as one of "London's finest bookshops".^[5]
