ARCHITECTURE

The Isle of Man contains many interesting buildings for the discerning resident or visitor to enjoy, with distinctive vernacular cottages, three castles (two built for defence, one built as a Ducal residence), works by historically significant architects such as MH Baillie Scott, Frank Matcham and Armitage Rigby, and other distinctive buildings produced through architectural competitions, especially in that Edwardian-to-Victorian era when many new buildings were commissioned. This book provides an introduction to this range of buildings stretching from the earliest surviving structures right up to the present.

360 pages : colour illustrations ; 30 cm
