Impact of the Coming of the Railway on Holmes Chapel

Researcher: Cath Cameron

I am currently researching the coming of the railway to Holmes Chapel:

     * the planning, construction of the railway and the opening of the station
     * associated railway buildings
     * the lives of the men who built it
     * the social and economic implications to the village.
