Remembering Village Shops

Remembering Village Shops

by Combe Down residents, edited by Richard Read

£15

The result of over 3 years of research by the Combe Down Heritage Society, this is a fascinating collection of memories of the old shops on Combe Down from members and other residents, with the facts on location and timing corroborated from Post Office Directories, Parish Magazines and old maps. Over 60 locations in the village housed retail establishments of some kind at one time or another. The input was edited by Richard Read and includes a Foreword from Stuart Burroughs, Director of the Museum of Bath at Work in which he calls the work of Combe Down Heritage Society “an exemplar of local historical research.”
