Beschreibung
Horsham is a market town in West Sussex on a major crossing of the River Adur. The origins of the town date back to Anglo-Saxon times and was known early on for horse trading, becoming established as a borough in the early 13th century. Horsham was always a successful market town, but its wealth was also based on iron-smelting, brickmaking, stone quarrying, brewing and leather making. More recently it has developed financial and service industries including insurance and video gaming. Famous brewers like King and Barnes had been established in the town and continuing the heritage of brewing there are now craft brewers, gin distillers and vineyards locally. The population has grown rapidly in recent years due to new housing developments on the outskirts of the town. Celebrating Horsham. chronicles the proud heritage of Horsham, its important moments and what draws so many to this town today. Illustrated throughout, this fascinating book offers a marvelous and refreshingly positive insight into Horsham's rich heritage, its special events and important moments. Celebrating Horsham. will be a valuable contribution to the history of the town and provide a source of many memories to those who have known it well over the years.
