The former county of Huntingdonshire was one of the smallest in England. Despite being a popular stopping point on the Great North Road from London to the north, it has always been a rather quiet rural county. Since an exodus of people from London began in the 1960s, the ancient towns of Huntingdonshire have grown tremendously and new buildings have sprung up along their high streets. As you will see from this collection of old and new photographs though, the greatest change has been the advent of the motor car which dominates modern life. This fascinating book uses historic photographs from the unparalleled collections held at the Huntingdonshire Archives to show how the county has changed and will evoke memories of Huntingdonshire as it has been through time.
