A man has lifted the lid on owning the oldest bookshop on London Road.
Michael McCabe, from Seaforth, set up his second hand bookshop, Henry Bohn, in 1988. His first shop opened on the corner of Berry Street and Seel Street, at the site of an established store next to the Blue Angel nightclub.
Michael's business all began when he couldn't afford a bill in the 1980s. As an avid book collector, Michael took some of them to a car boot sale to raise some much needed cash. However, this landed him in hot water after he was seen and reported to the social security who threatened to stop his benefits.
