This A4 book contains photographs of the Teesdale village of Copley from circa 1900 until the 1980s. It would be fair to say that in the first half of the 20th Century, Copley was the place to be. It was noted for the friendly nature of its inhabitants, and there was an air of comradeship, demonstrated most admirably during the world wars. People came in numbers from the surrounding villages to enjoy the delights of Copley....
Following the popularity of 'Copley - Part I', this follow-up book covers the area surrounding Copley. Specifically it includes photos from circa 1900 to the 1980 of Lane Head, Langleydale, The Mill, Lynesack, Copley Road and also includes additional photos of Copley Village.
