Description

"

Burbage Through the Centuries charts the journey of a Leicestershire village, from the Norman Conquest to World War One.   It describes how historical events, the Norman Conquest, the Black Death, the Reformation and the Civil War affected the villagers of Burbage.  Later, the Enclosure of land and the Industrial Revolution forced workers out of the fields and many villagers became dependent on stocking making.  Predominantly, the book is a social history, it is about the families and people, be they poor or privileged, who lived in Burbage and captures the minutiae of their everyday lives.


If you have an interest in local history or want to discover how your ancestors really lived, this book could help you to peek into the backgrounds of Burbage families and forebears. You may also be keen to see if you can identify your own family history.
