Description
Wakefield has a rich history spanning over 1,000 years. Once considered the capital of the West Riding of Yorkshire, the town was a major population centre until the late eighteenth century. This change in fortunes is reflected in the town's transformation from a thriving industrial hub to a modern service-based economy. Rare archive photographs play a key role in this book, presenting Wakefield's heritage for the first time. These images offer a unique glimpse into the town's past, showcasing its evolution over the centuries. With 96 pages of rare and previously unpublished photographs, Secret Wakefield provides a fascinating insight into the history of this West Yorkshire town.
