Essex's Industrial Archaeology. New sub-group of ESAH to be launched at one day event on Saturday 6 July 2013

Since large-scale industrialisation began in the eighteenth century, industrial development has had a huge influence on the way people have lived.  Essex is often overlooked as an industrial county, but industry is a fascinating aspect of the county's past.  This one-day conference will take a look at the industries which sprang up here, and the impact they had on local people's lives, and will also include the launch of a new industrial archaeology sub-group of the Essex Society for Archaeology and History. 

Essex Record Office, Wharf Road, Chelmsford
Saturday 6 July 2013, 9.30am to 4.00pm
Tickets £15 including buffet lunch and refreshments
Please book in advance by telephoning 01245 244614
