Anybody know of any bookshops I can search for really old books from the
1800's. Particularly Rotherham books. The internet is not proving successful as I suppose there are too many books to be listed. Thank you.

Might be a case of not enough rather than too many! What sort of thing are you after? Rare'n'Racy on Division St. does have some local history stuff but after that you're struggling, unless you include the Porter bookshop on Sharrowvale Rd. and the one on Rustlings Rd. I would have thought the web was your best bet - abebooks.com is the place to go.
