About this product
Product Information
For almost a century, from the mid-19th to the mid-20th century, Shoreditch dominated the furniture industry as a major centre of manufacturing and wholesale selling to the domestic and export markets. This has given rise to an architectural legacy of a group of inter-related structures used for the making, storing, finishing and selling of furniture in all its variations, but one that is now under threat from development pressure. This book therefore serves to highlight this architectural history and the conservation and planning issues associated with it, while underscoring the necessity of proper historical evaluation when attempting to understand the character of an area.Product Identifiers
