I dealt in an earlier post with the BIG UK publishers. Here is a selection of other, smaller publishers and their guidelines. And check out the link on the title for email addresses for lots of UK publishers. everyonewhosanyone.com

Arcadia Books is an independent publisher specialising in literary fiction, translated fiction, EuroCrime, biographies, travel, multi-cultural books under BlackAmber imprint, gay and gender studies. Bliss imprint is for popular fiction. They welcome agent's submissions only. As far as I can tell, they plan to publish 20-30 titles in 2007.

Black Lace (Virgin Books) publishes Erotica. Website is currently parked so I dont know if they are accepting submissions.

Robert Hale does consider unsolicited manuscripts. 3 sample chapters and a synopsis. They publish general fiction, crime and westerns particularly.
