Family-owned book shop, Aldous Books, has now opened its Chester store.

Located on Godstall Lane, the venture is Steve and Gina Aldous' second store - following on from their original shop which can be found in the Bluecoat Arts Centre in Liverpool One.

The duo opened the doors to their Chester location for the first time on Saturday (5 April).
