A historian will be signing copies of her new book capturing a year in the life at West Bay.

Sylvia Stafford will be at West Bay Discovery Centre on Thursday, October 17 between 11 am-2pm to sign copies of her new book entitled That Was The Year That Was.

It is based on Sylvia's own journal, documenting life in the small harbour and popular tourist resort of West Bay in 2012.

Accompanied by many photographs, the book will give an illustrated look at the busy events of a working harbour as well as the history of town and its buildings. 

The book retails at £15 and is on sale at local bookshops as well as at the discovery centre.
