The industrial town of Burnley developed around coalmining and cotton weaving and spinning. In this absorbing new book local author Jack Nadin has gathered together ninety pairs of images to record the decline of these old industries and contrast the changing face of the town during the last 100 years; the old streets and buildings, shops and businesses, houses and public buildings, whilst recalling local people who once lived and worked in the town.

Burnley Then & Now is sure to bring back nostalgic memories of yesteryear for all who know and love this part of Lancashire.
