Supplied by Wakefield Family History Sharing.

From Doomsday Book to the 1800’s

William Smith takes you back in time and invites you on a walk through the area. He leads you into buildings, introduces you to local people and characters and also informs you of local events and pastimes. He informs you of where the ducking-stool was, and who was the local Dog-Whipper.

You could find a building today and work out who lived in which cottage, which place of worship stood yards away or whose mill was just down the lane.

A very enjoyable book for local or family historians or those interested in social history. By William Smith FSAS. A cd in Adobe format.
