Description
Saltaire, one of Yorkshire's most famous industrial villages, has undergone a remarkable transformation. Once the brainchild of its founder, this model village was once on the brink of decline.
Dr Gary Firth's collection of over 200 photographs offers a unique glimpse into Saltaire's past and present. From its origins to its current status as a thriving community, these images vividly capture the essence of this remarkable place.
A highlight of the book is the inclusion of previously unpublished pictures of the Salt family home at Milner Field, adding an extra layer of depth to our understanding of Saltaire's history.
