3 Male 6 Female
Applying the ideals of gentility and propriety, the idiosyncratic ways of the women of Cranford are thrown into disarray as modernity encroaches ...
... in the form of a new railway line which seems to be coming harrowingly close
Cranford's eclectic women strive to stay immersed in the sweet pleasures and sometimes heart-breaking realities of simple village life
But it soon becomes apparent that the world is changing in the face of the industrial revolution
And that Cranford will have to change with it
