Around Batley

This book is part of the Images of England series, which uses old photographs and archived images to show the history of various local areas in England, through their streets, shops, pubs, and people.

Résumé

Batley has become accustomed to peaks and troughs of prosperity. The rages-to-riches town, situated in the heart of West Riding's Heavy Woollen District, had few major industries to fall back on when the mills closed. This book contains 200 old images from Batley's heyday, selected from the author's own archive of picture postcards and ephemera.
