About this product

Product Information

Alveston Through Time is a unique insight into the illustrious history of this part of the country. Reproduced in full colour, this is an exciting examination of Alveston, the famous streets and the famous faces, and what they meant to the people of this area throughout the 19th and into the 20th Century. Looking beyond the exquisite exterior of these well-kept photos, readers can see the historical context in which they are set, and through the author's factual captions for every picture, and carefully-selected choice of images, the reader can achieve a reliable view of the town's history. Readers are invited to follow a timeline of events and watch the changing face of the town, as Rosemary King guides us through the town's streets. There is something for everyone here, whether they have lived in the area all their lives, or whether they are just visiting this fabulous town. It also shows how photography has continually evolved to keep up with an ever-changing society.

  • Exploration of the history of the village.

    Spent the day using the book as a resource to find the old houses in the village. Would have helped to have had a map or index with the book as we are still trying to find some of the locations:) But made for a fun day with a fun book. Always good to have these kind of resources. Thank you for taking the time to put this together.
