Braintree and Bocking

by John Adlam

From an era when the postal service was in its heyday and a postcard mailed in the morning would arrive the same afternoon to inform friends or relatives that you would be joining them that day for tea, comes this collection of pictorial memories of Braintree and Bocking and a few of the surrounding villages. Many of the scenes will still be instantly recognisable but others will need more careful scrutiny. Changes have often been extensive. This fascinating collection of nearly 200 old photographs has been selected from the authors' own private collections and will provide residents old and new with a wealth of nostalgic delight.
