Description
Bury St Edmunds, a medieval market town in East Anglia, has preserved its unique charm despite post-war modernisation. This fully illustrated book explores the town's past and sheds light on its transformation.
The story of Bury St Edmunds is one of loss and change, as traditional businesses and community institutions have disappeared. The Arc development, which replaced a historic flea market, is just one example of the town's evolution.
For those who remember the town's former character, this book offers a nostalgic look back at what was lost. It will also appeal to visitors drawn to its preserved medieval architecture and independent shops.
