In Furness Vale, three stories of a small Derbyshire village

There  are some nice stories on Furness Vale local history site at present.

I was up there giving a talk on Chorlton in the 1840's last month.

Like us it was a small village but given its position never grew remaining a little community of about 2,000 people but it supports a fine local history society.

This week’s crop includes an insight into the local Sunday school in the 195os, a wonderful collection of photographs of a local who died in France in 1916 and an advert for Ferodo in 1943.

Well worth a look.
