Description
Colebrooke Parish Stories brings together 101 remarkable stories from Colebrooke, Coleford and Penstone in Mid Devon. Drawing on newspapers, parish records, census material, local research and family memories, John and Neville Enderson explore the people, places and events that shaped the parish across the centuries.
From floods, fires and village tragedies to bellringers, wrestlers, public houses, remarkable residents and forgotten episodes of everyday life, the book reveals a parish whose history is far richer than its quiet rural appearance might suggest. Each story is accompanied by a purpose-made illustration, creating an accessible and atmospheric record of community life.
Written for local residents, family historians and anyone interested in Devon's past, this illustrated A4 hardback preserves stories that might otherwise disappear from living memory.
