ABOUT THIS BOOK:
This book provides a fascinating portrait of how Belmont looked around a hundred years ago.
An introductory text explores the early history and development of Belmont, a village that emerged as the 19th-century
drew to a close. This is followed by an evocative photographic survey.
More than sixty old photographs and picture postcards are lavishly reproduced here. This superb selection, which
spans the Edwardian period and the First World War, is accompanied by informative captions and historical details.
The majority of the images are previously unpublished.
Belmont: A Century Ago represents the first ever publication dedicated to the history of the village.
This unique and permanent record of a bygone era will be of great interest to anyone who is curious to find out more about the area's past.

He has contributed many articles to the heritage page of the Sutton Guardian newspaper.
