Watford grew around a ford on the River Colne, becoming an important market town in Hertfordshire in the Middle Ages. The Grand Union Canal and the railways brought huge changes to Watford in the 19th century, and it developed industrially. The town expanded rapidly with its growing population, aided by its proximity to London, and extensive areas of new housing were built in the early 20th century. The town is now a major commercial and business centre for the area northwest of London and although Watford has preserved many of its historical buildings and open spaces such as Cassiobury Park, everyday life in Watford has changed markedly over the years. Lost Watford presents a portrait of this town in Hertfordshire and a way of life that has radically changed or disappeared today, showing not just the buildings, streets and industries that have gone or changed, but also a way of life. This fascinating photographic history of lost Watford will appeal to all those who live in the town or know it well, as well as those who remember it from previous decades.
