Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Octavo, [21cm/8.25in], paperbound with pictorial covers, pp. 114. Fully illustrated with b-w halftones and sketches. Please feel free to inquire as to particulars and/or additional photographs. . Worsley Village was in 1969 designated as a conservation area by the former Lancashire County Council. Bisected by the A572 Worsley Road, the area covered about 34.25 acres (138,600 m2) of land and included 40 listed buildings, such as the Packet House, a telephone kiosk, and the Delph sluice gates, but this list has since increased to 48 listed buildings.

The area includes Worsley Delph (itself a scheduled monument), parts of Worsley Green, and the Bridgewater Canal. In 2015, the Royal Horticultural Society announced plans for a restoration of the garden at Worsley New Hall, to open in 2019 under the name RHS Garden Bridgewater. In exceptionally good condition.…
