Description
Photographs and commentaries on nearly 50 outstanding ‘Bristol Doors Open Day’ interiors: banks, a brewery, churches, a former police station, the country’s finest art academy outside London, an artists’ hideaway, a ‘blue glass’ workshop among them. Also revealed are the breathtaking rococo decoration of the Royal Fort – a national treasure – and, by way of contrast, the chaste simplicity of hymn-writer Charles Wesley’s red-brick house, a reminder of Bristol’s lingering Low Church, non-conformist religious past. 210mm x 240mm 96pp colour illustrations throughout ISBN 1 900178 59 1 softback
