A Stroll Through The Century

Earls Colne 1700 to 1974
£20
A history of Earls Colne by Earls Colne branch of the Workers’ Education Association.
Although a History of Earls Colne over its whole existence was not possible, it was felt that a lot of interesting material could be recorded from living memory and the contempory economic survey would almost be unique and of value to further research.
It is Earls Colne Heritage Museums aim to extend this further now and include the period from 1974 to 2024 – 50 years.
