Description

by Dave Palmer

A pictorial and social history of Three Bridges and surroundings in West Sussex. This book brings to life the poems of Betty Allen, born in 1914, through postcards and photographs collected over 40 years or more by her son, Peter.

This incredible collection of photographs illustrates what it would have been like to grow up in this small village before the big local estates were sold and Three Bridges became another neighbourhood in the rapidly expanding new town of Crawley.

Featuring over 400 pictures, and including many which have never previously been published, this book is a “must have” for those interested in the history of the place they grew up, lived, worked and played in or just passed through on the London to Brighton line.
