One-Place Studies - Tracing the History of a Community

The people, the streets, the churches, the workplaces, the shops and the public buildings & there are so many aspects to explore in a village to uncover its fascinating history. The village detective, Kirsty Gray, documents the sources available to trace the history of villages, with particular reference to her own one-place studies in southern England, and how genealogical/historical records can be used to build up a comprehensive picture of a community from the 18th to the 21st century.
