Description
Fully illustrated description of Stroud and the Five Valleys' well-known, and lesser-known, places from old photographs
Stroud is a delightful Cotswold market town built on a hillside at the convergence of five valleys. Into its rich history are woven many strands: the story of the wool trade, the arrival of canals and railways, the construction of fine public buildings and the development of streets, parks and shops. In Stroud and the Five Valleys From Old Photographs local author and historian Howard Beard sheds light on the town and surrounding area's past and provides a visual representation of how it looked over the last hundred years or more. This fully illustrated book will appeal to visitors as well as residents who will have fond memories of a time gone by.
