    Paperback. Condición: New. Secret Rotherham offers a unique insight into this bustling, modern South Yorkshire town through a series of little-known and forgotten stories, facts and anecdotes from its past. The town has an enviable industrial history: Nelson's HMS Victory was armed with Walker cannons made at Masbrough, the iron plates for Isambard Brunel's steamship the Great Eastern were manufactured at Parkgate Iron and Steel Works, and the firm of Guest and Chrimes invented the modern screw-down tap. Over the centuries the Rotherham area has also had its fair share of famous residents and visitors. It was the home of the Earl of Strafford, who was beheaded in 1641; John Wesley, the 'Father of Methodism', was a fairly frequent (if not always welcome) visitor to the area; Ebenezer Elliott, the 'Corn Law Rhymer', was born and bought up in the town; and the composer Ralph Vaughan Williams spent many a summer in one of the outlying villages.In Secret Rotherham Melvyn Jones and Anthony Dodsworth pull back the curtains of history to peer into the borough's distant and not so distant past to reveal the forgotten, the strange and the unlikely.…

    Softcover. Condición: Good. First Edition. Rawmarsh and Parkgate have very different histories and, despite growing together over the past century, remain neighbouring settlements with quite separate . identities. The development of both communities over the past 110 years is reflected in this superb collection of more than 200 photographs. The majority of these images have- come from local personal collections and family albums and many have never been published before. As a whole the photographs combine to show the growth of the two communities linked by Rawmarsh Hill. The key role of industry in their development is particularly clear. Iron and steelworks played a vital role in economic growth, attracting- workers and the services to support a growing population. Leisure time was enjoyed to the full, with street parties, parades and sporting activity. Memorable events are recalled, some tragic, some cause for celebration. Above all else this collection provides a great sense of the changes that have taken place, in shops and businesses, heavy industry, residential areas and, of course, the people - but also reminds us of many continuities. Clearly felt throughout the book is the pride that local inhabitants have taken and continue to take in Rawmarsh and Parkgate. Size: Large Octavo. 128 pages. no Dust Jacket as published. White titles spine. Light bumping to outer corners. illustrated by b/w. photo's. & maps. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams. Category: Genealogy & Local History; South Yorkshire; Old Photographs; History; England; Photography. ISBN: 0752424955. ISBN/EAN: 9780752424958. Inventory No: 4710. Member of the P.B.F.A.…
