The Mill House and Thereabouts. Recollections of an idyllic childhood in Sprowston, Norfolk

£18.00

This book was born out of disaster, the tragic destruction by fire of Sprowston Mill in 1933. So distressed by this event was the last owner of the mill, William Albert Harrison, that his son Herbert undertook to preserve the memory of the mill in a book. In fact he wrote 2 books, The story of Sprowston Mill which was published in 1949, and this book which contains his memories of an idyllic childhood spent in and around Sprowston at the end of the Victorian era.

Card cover, 92pp., b/w photographs and sketches.
