From the ancient mystery of Stonehenge to the modern elegance of The Shard, join us on a journey through Britain’s architectural evolution. Exploring iconic landmarks like Lincoln and Ely cathedrals, Georgian London, and the brutalism of 20th-century cities, Simon Jenkins reveals how buildings reflect the nation’s history and values. With a personal role in the conservation movement, he urges us to appreciate and protect these architectural treasures for future generations.
