The population of Northfield as a whole is over 24,000, and most of these people live on the Tinker's Farm estate. This book covers many aspects of life in the area, from shops and schools to sport, high days and holidays. The design and building of Tinker's Farm is covered, but most of the book features the social history of the area. With a strong emphasis on people, locals are sure to be able to pick out many familiar faces from well over 250 photographs featured.
