Industrial Countryside, The

Synopsis: Surviving buildings indicate that wealth-creating activities in the countryside were as often industrial as as agricultural. This programme looks at industrial and agricultural building in France, Scotland and Ireland - buildings that provide evidence of grain-milling and linen production in Brittany, wine-making in the Loire Valley, and brewing and stock-raising in Scotland and Ulster.

Notes: NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
