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.
