Book Oswestry   Whitchurch in the Great War

Download or read book Oswestry Whitchurch in the Great War written by Janet Johnstone and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2016-08-31 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the outbreak of hostilities, Oswestry and Whitchurch in rural north Shropshire were busy market towns that depended largely on agriculture for a living and justly famed for butter and cheese production. Within weeks of Lord Kitcheners impassioned call for volunteers, scores of local men, many employed in farm work, had accepted the kings shilling and travelled to training camps, some never to return.Those left behind were soon experiencing changes, as rules and regulations were swiftly implemented by the Defence of the Realm Act. Food shortages became apparent, rationing was introduced, private houses were turned into auxiliary hospitals, Belgium refugees arrived, and lighting restrictions came into force. Shortages of men resulted in women taking on the mens tasks; they coped very successfully, leading to lasting changes in attitude.Two of the biggest training camps in the country Park Hall, Oswestry and Prees Heath, Whitchurch were constructed on land just a few miles distant from the towns boundaries, and people had to learn quickly to cope with a massive influx of soldiers. Photographs illustrating the building of one of the camps have been included in this book, to demonstrate just how much was achieved in such a short period of time.Using information and illustrations gleaned from various sources, this book endeavours to paint a true picture of what life was like on the Home Front throughout the conflict, and hopes to keep alive the memory of the men who fought in the war and the women and children who remained at home anxiously waiting for their loved ones to return.
