About the Book

THIS book gives a fascinating insight into the dramatic changes that have taken place in Mansfield over the past 100 years or so. Mansfield Past & Present recalls houses and public buildings, shops, churches and pubs that have vanished or been changed almost beyond recognition.The pictures show changing types of transport and fashion, and the developing character of streets and districts as they took on the form that is familiar today. The astonishing periods of growth that occurred during the late Victorian and Edwardian eras, and since the Second World War, are particularly well illustrated. Many aspects of the changing town are recalled - hospitals and schools, places of work and recreation, parks and squares, suburban streets and the main thoroughfares - and the pictures record the ceaseless building and rebuilding that characterises the town today.The authors have combined a remarkable selection of archive photographs with modern views of the same scenes in order to record the transformation that has occurred. The book will add to the knowledge, appreciation and enjoyment of all those who take an interest in this distinctive town.The Old Mansfield Society was founded in 1919 and since then it has amassed extensive archives, published books on the town, and has created a website. It is represented on the District Council's Preservation Committee. The Society celebrated it's Centenary year in 2019 with a successful exhibition held in the Mansfield Museum.
About the Author: In 1919, a year for reflection and hope after the First World War, a group of Mansfield folk created a society to record the memories and heritage of the town. The Old Mansfield Society has been working ever since, preserving and presenting the past of this ancient community. Its collection of Mansfield history resources is now extensive, including thousands of photographs, documents and other items.
