About

We have come a long way since George Baldwin first opened his doors on 77 Walworth Road, South East London in 1844.

In the last 170 years, Baldwins has passed from the loving care of George Baldwin whose family helped to establish 12 shops (before downsizing) to the Dagnell’s, who have helped Baldwins to flourish into the store you see today: London’s oldest and most established Herbalist.

Now located on 173 Walworth Road, our store still captures the nostalgic atmosphere of its original store – wooden floors, high old fashioned counters and shelves stacked with herbs, oils and ointments.

Yet don’t let the appearance of our store deceive you….

The reason we are London’s oldest herbalist is because we have adapted with the expanding health food market to offer you – our loyal customers – essential and carrier oils as well as an assortment of other natural remedies including our own creation, the Synergy Range.

And our commitment to giving you real value for money has built us a solid reputation in the industry. From Terrence Stamp to Michael Caine to Max Bygraves to Martin Shaw, our store has been blessed with a variety of celebrities over the years who have all congratulated us for a living up to our motto of supplying an extensive range of quality products at an affordable price. And now you can access all our herbs, oils and natural remedies online. With expertise spanning 2 families and over 170 years, you cannot go wrong...
