A Brief History of Awsworth by J.M.Lee

Description

A brief history of Awsworth and its surrounding area with a few illustrations.

Awsworth today is a dormitory area for a collection of nearby conurbations but was once a tiny hamlet surrounded on all sides by rural England. Its origins go back at least to Saxon times. It later developed an impressive industrial heritage, including a network of canals and railways which remain fascinating to this day.  34pp
