Across churchyards, farmsteads and forgotten lanes, the story of Montgomeryshire is written in stone, parchment and memory. This classic welsh local history collection gathers meticulous historical and archaeological essays on the county and its border parishes, revealing the texture of everyday life and the rise and fall of its great families. Every page breathes the past. First issued as the Powys-land Club journal, this montgomeryshire archaeology journal Volume XXIV assembles studies of churches, castles and antiquities, carefully edited Montgomeryshire parish records, and notes essential to border counties genealogy and serious family history research. Both a vivid monument of 19th century Montgomeryshire scholarship and a dependable reference for local historians, it sits naturally beside any Archaeologia Cambrensis companion for readers of wales border counties history. Scholarly yet deeply human, the volume preserves inscriptions, place-names, local traditions and documentary fragments that would otherwise be unreachable to most modern readers, transforming them into a rich family history research source for anyone with roots in Montgomeryshire or the adjoining English and Welsh shires. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. Designed for casual browsers of regional history as much as for archivists and collectors of classic topography, Collections Historical & Archaeological Relating to Montgomeryshire and Its Borders (Volume XXIV) offers a lasting gateway into the landscapes, communities and layered stories of this distinctive corner of Wales.
