DESCRIPTION

This fascinating selection of photographs traces some of the many ways in which Ansty, Barnacle and Shilton have changed and developed over the last century.
These three villages to the north-east of Coventry are within a mile of each other, yet are distinct communities with different histories, traditions and rivalries. Ansty has an imposing seventeenth-century hall, now a hotel, which influenced village life and employment. Ansty was also close to early coal mines and the Oxford Canal, now a popular tourist route. Shilton had many ribbon-weavers in the nineteenth century, as well as agriculture. Ansty and Shilton retain Anglican churches, and Shilton has a tiny Baptist church. Barnacle has a Methodist chapel and found itself split between nearby Bulkington and Shilton when parish boundaries mattered more. It used to have two pubs and a shop. Two farms have Civil War associations. The old photographs have been gathered over thirty years. The images compare starkly with the present day, when most residents have to work outside the villages.
