This collection of stories from nineteenth century Brewood tells of the accidents, crime, drunkenness, poverty and brutality that affected the lives of hundreds of ordinary people. It covers a wide range of crimes from minor thefts and assaults, to the most serious offences - with those found guilty facing anything from a fine of a few shillings to a path to the gallows. Fascinating details about pubs, shops and properties are also included, along with descriptions of entertainment, matters of public health, the poor and the Workhouse. Discover the Workhouse master who could butcher a pig in record time, the disinherited aristocrat who beat his wife and Brewood's cow-powered 'Demolition Derby'!
