The Patchwork History of a Community Growing Up

The Patchwork History of a Community Growing Up

In 1974, the seven founding members of Old Hall Community paid £75,000 for an old friary which they then divided into 14 ‘units’. This delightful little book consists of community anecdotes, poems, photos, journal extracts, reminiscences, archival accounting pages, newspaper ads, and drawings. Not a chronological history but the memories and perspectives of many different people. The spirit of the contributors shines through – here are the ideas, passions, humour, and ponderings.
£5.00
Written by members and friends of Old Hall, past and present. General Editor: Brenda Gamlin.
120pp paperback; b&w illustrations and photos
