ABOUT THIS BOOK: ISBN 0-9541442-0-1 |
| Packed with 300
photographs as well as extracts from old maps, diary
entries, memories and interesting facts, this book will
evoke fond memories of times gone by of a village when
everyone knew everyone else by their first names.
This is a book to treasure, possibly to pass on to younger family members, as it provides a lasting record of the people, places and events of Pamber Heath since its first settlement around 200 years ago. The format is 150 pages, A4 size. 750 copies were ordered for the first edition and went on sale in late October 2001 at £9.50. It sold so well that within three months all were gone. 100 more copies were printed and sold gradually throughout 2002, the last two being sold in February 2003. 50 more copies were printed in early October 2003 in response to many requests. The last two copies were sold at the end of July 2004. 50 more copies were printed in mid November 2004 after many requests but sold out yet again in early May 2005. The price had been increased to £12.50. 100 more copies were printed at the beginning of November 2006, following receipt of about 44 orders. The price remains at £12.50. Owing to the high cost of low print runs, it had not been possible to make the book available in local shops as it had been when first published in late 2001. However, I have now made it available again at Pamber Heath Stores in Silchester Road but will be at a higher price, set by the store owner - probably around £15. Otherwise, it is only available either by collection from me at Pamber Heath, or by mail order. You can buy online on this web site with a credit/debit card as well as by other methods, depending on your location. I am amazed that this book has been so popular and still in demand after 5 years. Thanks to all who have bought a copy and for the many kind appreciative comments.

1909 when they could attend Pamber Heath School).
