St Brides Printing Library

Had a splendid day at St Brides. They have an exhibition hall which houses a good collection of antique printing presses, ranging from an original wooden frame, similar to the one(s) I imagine Gutenberg used, through examples of the Columbian, Albion and Stanhope. The library itself has an excellent selection of books on printing and related subjects, and a pleasant light airy and peaceful reading room.
