This book is part of the Images of England series, which uses old photographs and archived images to show the history of various local areas in England, through their streets, shops, pubs, and people.
At first glance Alcester would appear to have changed little over a number of centuries, but a closer look will draw attention to such recent buildings as the post office, the police station and former magistrates' court, library and health centre complex. This book of over 150 photographs, selected mainly from the author's own collection and that of the late Margaret Rees, will show the reader the changes facades and trades in Alcester from the early decades of the twentieth century to recent years. It includes the Globe Inn, The Old Rookery workhouse, The Bakers Arms and The Corn Exchange, which later became the Regent Cinema. The people of the town are not forgotten either, and we will see them at work, at play, in sport and in celebration. The town has often been praised for the quality of its special events and the book shows many teams and groups, jubilees, coronations, parties and of course the Mop to illustrate this point. The reader can take the opportunity to enjoy the nostalgia for its own sake but will also be able to search for long-forgotten faces in these photographs. This book commemorates the town of Alcester and its people, and contains many photographs which are published here for the first time. It will provide a lasting record of the town and bring pleasure to those living in and around it.
