Description
Old Barrhead and Neilston offers a photographic look at two Scottish villages that experienced significant growth due to the cotton industry in the late 18th and 19th centuries. From the early 20th century, this volume documents the area's transformation over time. The book explores the industrial heritage of Barrhead and Neilston, tracing their populations' rise and fall as the textile industry declined in the 20th century. Through photographs, the author provides a visual record of the region's history. With 56 pages of images, Old Barrhead and Neilston is a concise and informative look at two Scottish villages and their industrial past.
