A nostalgic photographic journey through Beaconsfield’s past, capturing its transformation from old to new town and the changing lives, fashions, and spirit of its people.

A wealth of fascinating old photographs tells the story of the two towns – the old and the new – which together are Beaconsfield. One may revel in the nostalgic pleasure of browsing through an old family album, recognizing people and familiar places, or finding them now all but unrecognizable.

Here is a vivid record of the changing lifestyle of the town and its people. Who could now stroll in the middle of the road, and who would stand and stare at a photographer? The spacious four Ends, the development of the New Town, people at work and play, changing fashions in everyday things – all are here in this collection of pictures gathered by the Beaconsfield & District Historical Society.

This book will give immense pleasure not only to those who live in Beaconsfield, but also to our neighbours and visitors.
