More Museum Publications
The Museum’s publications group has been busy and now two more booklets have joined the Museum’s growing list.
Bradford on Avon printers and town directories is the work of Roger Jones, who as the publisher Ex Libris Press has himself had plenty of experience of the printing industry. He gives a history of some of Bradford’s printers, illustrated by examples of their work, drawn from some of the town directories they produced.

The booklet Abbey Mill gives a history, illustrated with many photographs, both historic and full-colour new ones, of the the factories that made up Abbey and Church Street Mills through their three careers as woollen mills, rubber factories and residential flats. The author, David Gazard, is a resident of the complex.
