Townsend Records

My American friend called in here for a souvenir of England and bought a Union Jack guitar strap! The shop is cosy inside with a wide range of old vinyl records, musical instruments and music memorabilia. The owner is very polite, friendly and helpful.

Could have stayed all day just looking and listening to the brilliant conversations between customers and the delightfully friendly and deeply knowledgeable shop owner. Was in with my partner (54), my son (25) and my dad (81) enjoying National Record Store Day. We all bought something and have before. Will definitely go back every time we get to visit Clitheroe.

Spent too much money in here. Really friendly and knowledgeable, changed the music playing in store so my little one could stay asleep while I had a good look through the records. Well worth a visit.

Nice, friendly independent record shop. Good selection of new and used vinyl and CDs.

Really lovely selection of every genre! Great CDs, Vinyl, Vinyl Storage Boxes, Instruments and so much more! It's a cave of wonders and VERY reasonably priced lovely man on the till! Would definitely return and also recommend to anyone interested in Vinyl or just some cool tunes!

Whilst in the UK I went in to purchase a mid-range guitar. The guy there (I think his name was Paul) was very genuine and helpful, giving straight forward sound advice which I took. The outcome being, he ordered me an acoustic guitar which I think is really good value for my money. The guitar sounds amazing, even in my hands!! Many thanks and would really recommend!! keep up the good work.

Brilliant proper record shop. Well stocked. I get all my vinyl from there. Very friendly and helpful. Will order anything in that you want too.
Definitely my favourite shop in Clitheroe !

Visiting vinyl shops in the NW, I found this place lacking....
Small shop putting on corporate face, with overpriced new stock and no movement on price - infact seemed offended that I asked !!!! Did not engage in a chat despite me being the only customer.
Little used stock. Could be post covid limitations.
My wife usually leaves me in a vinyl shop and goes shopping for an hour or so, so was surprised to see me after 10 minutes!
