The Journal was a twice-yearly publication containing articles of local historical and associated interest. The last issue was in Summer 2021 but back numbers are still available from the editor from Summer 1999 onwards through the 22 years of publication at £2.95 each plus postage. Email journal@burylhs.org.uk.


The Society at present publishes two regular books.

‘The Forgotten Valley’ is an 80-page book written by Terry Ashworth and the late Vernon Sandiford about the valley of Cheesden Brook and its former industrial heritage.





A new reprint of Ruth Slater’s book
Out of print for nearly 30 years, ‘Bury Folk at Peterloo’ has been recently reprinted and published by the Society  to mark the 200th anniversary of the Peterloo massacre in Manchester.
