An introduction to Hagley’s pictorial record
A Brief History of Hagley
It is a common assumption amongst those who know Hagley, only in its commuter-dormitory guise, that it has no history!
We now know from recent excavations that there is evidence of settlement dating back to the Bronze Age in this area.
In this is an article written in 1984 by Geoffrey Parkes entitled An introduction to Hagley’s pictorial record (0.1MB), he gives a brief history of the village and some of the families who featured in it.
