Book review – Secret Peebles by Liz Hanson

For a town of 8376 people, Peebles has one heck of a history.

Liz Hanson’s Secret Peebles brings it to life through a combination of facts, anecdotes, photographs and older illustrations, which fully capture the feel of the area.

It’s very much a complete history with everything you could possibly want to know, from the 1100s up to the present day.

A real highlight are the series of ‘did you know’ facts, especially discovering what the 17th century equivalent of a personalised car numberplate was!
