This week: A Job is Not Enough
All over Britain the traditional industries are declining. The drift to the south east and to the cities continues.
It is a familiar pattern, one which faced Dartington in Devon in 1925. But one man, Leonard Elmhirst, believed that by bringing industry to the countryside and efficiency to agriculture he could halt the rural decline. Now Dartington is reaching out again.
