GREAT BRITISH ARCHITECTURE (HB)

From time-worn ruins and cathedrals to tucked-away country churches and elegant stately homes, Britain is full of genuinely incredible – but often surprisingly overlooked – historic buildings. This book brings together the stories behind 86 great buildings and celebrates their beauty, charm and significance. Each tells a remarkable story, including St?Magnus’ Cathedral in Orkney; East Anglia and Scotland’s medieval round tower churches; Layer Marney Tower, a Tudor display of status showcasing rare Italian terracotta ornament; and St Edmundsbury Cathedral, where a 21st century Gothic tower carries medieval craft traditions into the modern age.
