An authoritative and comprehensive account of an important area centred upon Great Driffield.Great Driffield, a thriving market town serving an extensive agricultural hinterland, stands at the junction of the Yorkshire Wolds and Holderness. The centre of an important AngloSaxon manor, in royal hands in the early middle ages, the main settlement was transformed from a large village into a boom town following the opening of a canal in 1770 that linked it to the expanding markets of Hull and the West Riding; its social, religious and political lifeflourished in the Victorian period particularly. This volume covers its history and that of its adjoining rural townships of Little Driffield, Elmswell and Kelleythorpe, from the Neolithic period to the beginning of the twentyfirst century; it provides the first detailed account of the town's trades and industries, as well as exploring landownership, local government, and social, religious and political life.The editors are former staff of the University of Hull.
