So much to see, especially in the shape of Georgian houses (and also medieval churches of course).

During 2020 and 2021, travel has been hugely restricted in the UK, so I've been drawing from my picture archives of past visits, and choosing what I post to provide what I hope is interest and variety. It's a long time since I last went to Bournemouth (and have no photographs of my own from back then) but have done a few posts about nearby Poole, which you can find using the search box at the top of the blog.

So many turn up looking for a medieval town, which it is, and don't really notice all the later fine buildings. And somehow the C17 work gets ignored as of little interest. Thank you, as ever, for your insights into familiar styles and buildings.per apsehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18269755913501559944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4228081722487474323.post-76651836117439045802021-05-10T10:34:40.222+01:002021-05-10T10:34:40.222+01:00As always an interesting blog, on of those I recom...As always an interesting blog, on of those I recommand with a link from my own. May I ask what decides your selection of presentations - coincidence or a selection of what you recently have seen yourself? Anything previously from Bornemouth?<br />GRØNN FRYD HOS MONIQUE -https://www.blogger.com/profile/08199296512046859001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4228081722487474323.post-50294289009303437222021-05-10T10:16:30.777+01:002021-05-10T10:16:30.777+01:00Interesting I just wrote about Georgian architectu...Interesting I just wrote about Georgian architecture this week :) So I am guessing that John Wood snr was better known and had a bigger influence than Thomas Rosewell's fancy surrounds. Georgian Bath has probably set the standard for centuries.Helshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02849907428208235392noreply@blogger.com
