Dramatic stories of tragedy, success, and bravery are all hidden in Dorset’s remarkable heritage of signs in iron and stone. Many of these tablets and inscriptions are passed by daily, either on foot or in cars, people barely realising the extraordinary lives and events they commemorate.
Now their secrets are revealed by retired Dorset farmer and businessman, Michael Russell Wood, in his richly illustrated book “Dorset’s Legacy in Iron and Stone”.
Beautifully printed and bound by ADP, Dorchester, this 92 page paperback book has 80 colour photographs taken by the author.
