This group was previously known as A History of British Buildings, but having reached the 1950's, we are now looking at more recent buildings and their architects in various countries.
We will explore the use of new materials, new technologies, design influences, politics, economic conditions and changing fashions.
All members of the group are encouraged to contribute to meetings

The PURPLE timeline covers Social History - the story of our changing lives.
The BROWN timeline covers Political History - the story of rulers and ruled, from feudal tyranny to the dawn of democracy.
The GREEN timeline covers Imperial History - the story of the formation of the UK, and the rise and fall of the British Empire.)
