Calne's Heritage is a fascinating collection of mostly previously unpublished images of this picturesque Wiltshire town. With a range of topics covered, from trade and agriculture to sport and recreation, this book illustrates Calne throughout a period of great social and economic change and development. Detailed scenes from Calne's history, such as its industrial expansion, the modernisation of the town centre and the community joining together to celebrate landmark occasions are all included. These evocative images are accompanied by informative captions to reveal an in-depth picture of the town's history over the last century. Written by local author Peter Treloar in his eighth book on the town, this latest volume will delight anyone who wishes to discover more about Calne's past and how it has evolved to become the town we recognise today.
