Lamberhurst: Jewel of the High Peak, A History

By Roger Pitchfork

There are a multitude of references of Lamberhurst, in many excellent books and many detailed subject short stories. However, after completing a history of the house that I lived in, at Coggers Cottage on The Broadway, Lamberhurst, I felt that the village lacked a book that recorded its history of the village and the development of its industries, in an easy-to-read format that could be used to share as many people as possible. So that is what I have attempted to do.

The written word is our ancestry, but I also believe the old adage 'a picture tells a thousand stories', so therefore where possible, I have included as many illustrations as possible as I could.

My reference list is long, and I acknowledge the research of my author sources, for that reason I regard myself of not as a soloist, but as the conductor of a large orchestra of talent, in the hope of producing a piece of work that readers will find interesting.

Finally, I wish to record my thanks to the residents of the village who, I have not lived here for fifty years, and I am very much a newcomer, have been friendly and I regard them as my friends.
