Hadfield and Padfield, by Margaret BuxtonPublished by Tempus in 2005, 128 pages. Paperback (N5640X2)Brand New BookFrom the rear side cover: The communities of Padfield and Hadfield lie in that windswept corner of north Derbyshire close to Glossop and, like their larger sister town, they grew in the nineteenth century as the textile industry brought mills and employment to the area.The majority of over 200 photographs in this collection are the work of Harry Buxton, a freelance news photographer from Hadfield, who took them between the late 1930s and the 1960s. Because he was often photographing newsworthy subjects, the collection contains an unusual wealth of interesting local events and people: from road accidents to heavy snowfalls and from wartime activities to carnivals. His daughter Margaret has selected the images and written the accompanying text to go with them. This book will be a fascinating journey into the recent past for all who have lived and worked in the area of Hadfield and Padfield.The book will delight anyone who has lived or grown up in Hadfield and Padfield, as well as people with a more general interest in the social history of this part of Derbyshire and beyond...
When we post our books, we take great care in packaging them - first your book will be wrapped in bubblewrap, which protects the book and even keeps out any rain (in the event that it's raining when the postie delivers it!). Then we wrap your book in stiff cardboard, taking care to make sure all the corners are protected, and finally the package is wrapped in thick brown paper.
