Whalley & Around Through Time Summary

Whalley & Around Through Time by Roger Frost

Whalley is sheltered by the wooded hillside of Whalley Nab on the banks of the beautiful River Calder. At the heart of the Ribble Valley, it is one of Britain's most attractive and fascinating areas. Immersed in history, Whalley village emerged as early as the 600s. Highlights include Whalley Abbey, a medieval church and an array of architectural styles to be found in its buildings. Whalley & Around Through Time takes us on a full colour visual tour of the area, and shows, with old and new photographs and postcards, just how much has changed. Join Roger Frost and Ian Thompson as they show, through these carefully selected images, how history has influenced this small but beautiful part of Lancashire. This book has much to surprise and delight anyone who knows and loves the area.
