Description
Ilfracombe Through Time by Peter Christie and Graham Hobbs is a unique collection of old and new images from the archives of the Ilfracombe Museum. This selection features previously unpublished photographs that offer a nostalgic glimpse of the town's history. The town's strategic location on the North Devon coast made it an ideal destination for smaller trading ships and fishing vessels, while its clear sea air attracted tourists from cities. The book explores the hotels, theatres, halls, and public rooms where crowds were entertained, as well as the streets, lanes, houses, schools, shops, and people that have shaped the town of today. Accompanied by informative text, this outstanding collection provides a valuable record of Ilfracombe's past, appealing to both residents and visitors alike.
