This fascinating collection of over 200 archive photographs
illustrates some of the historical developments which have shaped
the town of Brighouse and its surrounding communities. The
Industrial Revolution and the coming of the Canal Age brought new
prosperity to the area, and this book describes the effects of
industrialisation on the town and the people who helped to bring it
about, as well as the industries themselves. Informative and
detailed captions bring additional colour to the images, exploring
the buildings, transport and shops of Brighouse and its surrounding
settlements, as well as the close-knit communities which have
formed the heart of the area. This book will rekindle fond memories
of the past for anyone who has lived or worked in Brighouse, and
will delight those who want to find out more about the colourful
history of the town.
