| Life
& Death in Elizabethan Norton |
An in-depth study of the Derbyshire parish of Norton, which is now a
suburb of Sheffield. In Elizabethan times it was the principal scythe-making
community of northern England. Combining a computer analysis of the parish
registers between 1560 and 1620 with evidence from wills and inventories,
it contains much which is likely to be of interest to family, local and
social historians. The first part of Chapter 5 is a detailed study of
Heeley Bridgehouses, the settlement clustered around Heeley Mill. |
