Ormskirk and District: A Second Selection

By Mona Duggan

"Ormskirk and District" is a book of memories told through a wealth of contemporary photographs. Mona Duggan details the rich history of this area from the 17thcentury to events within living memory. This tour through Ormskirk s history includes photographs of the once-proud Lathom Hall in its second incarnation, after being twice besieged during the English Civil War and heroically defended by the Countess of Derby, through to the unique Ormskirk parish church, with its unusual tower and spire arrangement. Alongside exploring these landmarks of the area s heritage, the book delights with images of the men and women of the district at work in the fields and at play during the local festivals and on the nearby beaches. This is a trip down memory lane that cannot fail to be enjoyed by all those who know the area well and those who come to visit."
