Description
Barnsley & District Through Time explores the rich history and heritage of South Yorkshire's largest town. From its origins as 'Berneslai' in the Domesday Book to its current development, Peter Tuffrey takes readers on a fascinating tour of Barnsley and its surrounding areas.
The town's industrial past is still evident today, with some attractive older buildings surviving amidst newer developments. The nearby towns and villages, such as Bolton on Dearne and Penistone, also reflect the importance of industry to the region.
This book is a must-have for anyone interested in local history and the development of South Yorkshire's industrial heritage.
