Witham Through Time illustrates the history of this historic town from its Saxon origins through to the present day. This book demonstrates how the town has changed and yet how little it has altered over the years since photographers started recording the many street scenes for posterity. Looking beyond the exquisite exterior of these well-kept photos, which have come from postcard collections and personal albums, the reader can achieve a reliable view of the local history and may even remember some of the buildings appearing in the more recent photographs. The images also show how photography has continually evolved to keep up with an ever changing society. Witham Through Time offers something for everyone, whether they have lived in the area all their lives, or whether they are just visiting this busy market town for the first time.
