0904 Powerhouses of Provincial Architecture 1837-1914 Study Day 2

Saturday 24 January 2008 10am to 5pm

Following the sell-out success of the first study day we’re back with a second selection of provincial architects who deserve to be better known. This time we look even further away from the Metropolitan centre, at family firms, county networks, seaside resorts and industrial cities. Speakers include Dr Geoff Brandwood on Goddards of Leicester; Keith Knight on Walter Brierley of York; Dr Colin Cunningham on FW Stevens in Bombay; Dr Kathryn Ferry on JW Cockrill of Great Yarmouth; Peter Howell on John Douglas in Cheshire; Nick Antram on the forgotten Victorian architects of East Sussex; Dr Julian Holder on the firms that shaped Sheffield; Paul Harron on Young & Mackenzie in Belfast; and Phil Thomas on Herbert North in North Wales.

At the Art Workers’ Guild, 6 Queen Square, London WC1N 3AR. £45. Including sandwich lunch and refreshments at morning and afternoon breaks. Doors open 9.30am. Booking required.
