Abergele and District - A Pictorial Past (2007): CLICK HERE TO BUY!
£8.95 plus £2.50 p+p
Back Cover:
The pages enclosed within this book contain a selection of over one hundred
previously unpublished images of Abergele and surrounding area. These detail
everyday life during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries of
the local people; from public houses and hotels, to high and holidays, this
photographic collection attempts to capture an era long since gone.
All of the illustrations have been carefully chosen to enable the reader
to step back one hundred years, into a world of memories and forgotten places.
Abergele is an historic market town whose distinguished history dates back
several hundred years. It is hoped that the publication of this book will
encourage others to adopt an interest in local history and the preservation
of our collective heritage which is fast disappearing.
