This third book continues the story of the many people who devoted so much of their lives to creating a wholesome environment in which to live and bring up their children. The background to this book is the development of the Methodist community, their chapels and churches, but particularly the one at Shire Green which is celebrating its sesquicentenary. The book is illustrated by a wealth of over 200 pictures, most previously unpublished, which handsomely portray the changing scene, how people lived their lives and passed their time, how they dressed, where they worked and shopped, and all at a time of rapid and irreversible change to their previous, much more pedestrian, way of life.
Bryan Woodriff was born and brought up in Shire Green, and still has many family connections with Sheffield. He is especially interested in Yorkshire's industrial heritage and social history. He has compiled two books about Shire Green for SPL.
