Slater's [1859] Shropshire Directory
Transcribed from the 1859 Slater’s edition by David Price
"Slater's [1859] Shropshire Directory" by I. Slater is a historical reference work written in the mid-19th century. The text serves as a comprehensive directory detailing various aspects of Shropshire, including its geography, history, agriculture, industry, and civil divisions. It likely aims to provide valuable information for residents, visitors, and those interested in the local economy and social structure of the region during that time. The opening of the directory lays the groundwork for understanding the geographic and historical significance of Shropshire. It describes the county's boundaries, its historical tribes, and the evolution of key towns such as Shrewsbury. Additionally, it delves into the agricultural diversity and mineral wealth of the area, highlighting its fertile lands, notable crops, and significant local industries. This initial section sets the stage for a deep dive into the various entities, businesses, and social fabric of Shropshire, appealing to historians, genealogists, and local residents alike.
