Holme Pierrepont. Its history from the earliest times to the 1801 census
Available NOW, a new local history book by author Beryl Cobbing
By Marion Caunt
This book follows the lives of the men and women who lived and worked in the parish and manor of Holme Pierrepont from medieval times to the first national census.
Archaelogical evidence indicates signs of early human activity in the Holme Pierrepont area; a permanent Anglo-Saxon settlement was well established before the Norman conquest. At the end of the 13th century the Pierrepont family became lords of the manor.
Having 288 pages it is a fascinating read with many colour photographs and illustrations.
