The Book of Spetisbury – History of a Stour Valley Village

Description

(Ann Taylor) This book records the history of the parish, from the Bronze Age to the present day.  It describes the Priory, which once towered over the centre of the village, the railway’s arrival and departure, the church and its rectors, the school and its headmasters, and the way farming has changed through the centuries.

Above all it celebrates the day-to-day lives of the villagers. Includes over 250 photographs.
