Re: Is Nigella real?
Getting back to bookshops, may I put in a plug for The Booksmith? It's in the old Royal Ordnance Depot at Weedon Bec in Northamptonshire not far off the A5 or M1.

Re: A few from Warwickshire
I don't know about the bells, but there are some interesting and attractive animal carvings on the capitals of the nave arcade. Apart from that, it's a very scenic site!
