The picturesque Isle of Purbeck in south-east Devon is 60 square miles in size and has a long and fascinating past. Its name has Saxon origins, meaning 'beak-shaped ridge', a likely reference to its undulating hills. The Romans settled here and sites of archaeological interest have been discovered, revealing their reverence for the shale found on the island, often worked into intricate jewellery and furniture. In addition to its beautiful landscape and spectacular coastline, the Isle of Purbeck boasts many attractive and historically significant settlements, including Corfe and Swanage. Author Anthony Beeson explores the area's past and present through fascinating archive and contemporary photography, revealing how the area has evolved over time.
