This book is part of the Images of England series, which uses old photographs and archived images to show the history of various local areas in England, through their streets, shops, pubs, and people.
Billingham village, a Saxon settlement of 7th century origin nestled beside village green and Saxon church, retained a rural identity until the First World War. When hostilities ended, ICI was formed, and became a feature of the area. Presenting a pictorial history of Billingham through photographs, this title also contains historical captions.
