Meet Howard

Feb 11, 2021

Howard Bicknell - Manager of Haslemere Hall

Hi. My name is Howard and I am the manager of Haslemere Hall which is located in Bridge Road.

I was born and brought up in Haslemere, schooled and worked here before leaving in 1991 to go and work overseas for a summer season for a UK Tour Operator.

What started out as planning to find and discover myself as well as travel in 6 months, turned into an overseas stay for 20 years! I finally came back home to the UK in 2010, after working in a variety of destinations and managing overseas operations mainly based in Asia. I loved it. All of it.

My free time is mainly spent walking and being with our Dalmatian puppy Fig, helping out with the Community Store and planning future places to travel to when we can.

An Interview with The Haslemere Bookshop

31 Jul, 2023

Interview with Ian Rowley, owner of The Haslemere Bookshop The Haslemere Bookshop is an independent bookshop at the heart of Haslemere High Street selling new and second-hand books, and cards. Did you face any challenges when setting up the business? There has been a bookshop on the High Street for many years. When I took over the shop from Ronald Timms in 2014, I had no idea how a bookshop worked; fortunately the staff (all friends or family) did! Since then, through their hard work, the business has been transformed. Not only does the shop look very different but we are online, more community focussed and our second-hand book section rejuvenated.
