The bookshop deals new, secondhand and antiquarian books out of a picturesque venue in the Bognor Regis Railway Station.
Owner Jason Passingham moved the shop to the Railway Station last year, after taking over in 2015.

The Bognor bookshop will be profiled by the campaign on September 8, as part of the 100 day countdown to Small Business Saturday UK.
"“It’s fantastic to celebrate small firms just like Heygates Bookshop as part of our 10-year anniversary of the campaign,” said Michelle Ovens CBE, director of Small Business Saturday UK. “Over the past decade we have been able to spotlight dynamic businesses from across the nation, who remind us of the incredible tenacity and determination of small firms in this country.”
