This collection of over 200 archive photographs traces some of the many ways in which Cockermouth and the surrounding villages of Brigham, Broughton, Dovenby and Bridekirk have changed over the last 100 years. With images of street scenes, schools, pubs, churches and the people of Cockermouth at work and play, all aspects of life in Cockermouth during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries are covered. "Around Cockermouth" will reawaken nostalgic memories for many, while offering a unique glimpse of the past for others.
