Thornton's Bookshop (locally known as Thornton's) was the oldest university bookshop in Oxford, England.[1][2] It was founded in 1835 by Joseph Thornton (1808–1891) in Magdalen Street.[3]
From 1870, the bookshop was located at 11 Broad Street (opposite Balliol College), continued as a family business by five generations of the Thornton family[4] and from 1983 by the Meeuws family, but closed at the end of 2002.[3] The shop premises on Broad Street were frequently used for television adaptations like the final Inspector Morse episode, The Remorseful Day.[5]
