Description
From humble Saxon huts, to soaring gothic cathedrals, through feats of Victorian engineering to the homes we live in today, this is the story of England told by the places and people that built it. The Building of England puts into context the significance of a country’s architectural history and unearths how it is inextricably linked to the cultural past – and present. The buildings, their designers, builders, owners and users are brought vividly to life. Fully updated and expanded edition.
