philippalewisThe unsung history of the villa, semi and bungalow…

While we may dream of a thatched cottage in the country, a Queen Ann rectory or a Georgian terrace house, the reality for most of us is a detached villa, semi or bungalow. The story of these is just as fascinating, as Philippa Lewis will explain. Philippa is the author of Everyman’s Castle: the story of our cottages, country houses, terraces, flats, semis and bungalows (2014), and has worked as a picture editor, photographer and writer. She founded and, until its recent transfer to English Heritage,  ran the Edifice Architectural Photo Library, which compounded her enthusiasm for British Domestic architecture, from the grandest to the scruffiest! This talk will be illustrated with a wide range of images.
