Can anyone recommend a book available in the UK that details different designs of desks and plans?

Dave,
These three books all contain pretty decent information. The latter two have detailed plans for various desks, the first one is more general but points to plans and is excellent for all kinds of cabinetry - Bill Hylton wrote one of my all time favourites with this book.

Dave,
Chris' first recommendation is excellent - I bought it recently and is already proving invaluable.
I have a couple of others to add:
Desks by Andy Charron (Taunton pub) which has plans for 7 desks.
Fine woodworking on Tables and Desks (again by Taunton) - 32 extracts from FWW magazine. Not plans per se but good sources for ideas if a little old by now maybe?
Both should be available from a variety of UK sources.
Cheers
Tim
