Bridgwater

The town, the river and the people of Bridgwater have been well documented over the years, from the earliest days of the art to the present day. This fascinating volume brings together over 200 photographs from the collections of the town's museum, many of which are published here for the first time.

The images, which display over 100 years of Bridgwater life, record the changing face of the town's streets, buildings, businesses and society. The river, once the site of so much activity, is featured here is all its former shipping glory and the brick and tile industry, once a mainstay of local industry, is also well represented.

This book will appeal to all who know this old West Country town and would enjoy a nostalgic trip into its recent past.

Proceeds from the sales of the book will contribute to the development of the photographic collections at the Admiral Blake Museum.
