| Publisher Description: All towns have faced the challenge of adapting to modern needs whilst preserving their historic identity. This book tells how Chesterfield faced the prospect of the demolition of a large part of its old centre, had a turnaround in its thinking, and developed a new conservation approach that has preserved the old while accomodating the new. Lots of drawings and photos illustrate this case study. |
