English cathedrals and monasteries through the centuries: an interactive DVD-ROM produced by University of York/English Heritage in 2013 contains contributions by Louise Campbell on the new Coventry Cathedral and Sarah Walford on 20th-century cathedral architecture.
Research team book shortlisted for two prestigious prizes.
Basil Spence: buildings and projects ed. L.Campbell, M.Glendinning and J. Thomas (RIBA Publishing 2012) was recently shortlisted for two prestigious book prizes: The Society of Architectural Historians of Great Britain's Alice David Hitchcock Medallion, 2012, for an outstanding contribution to the literature of architectural history, and the William MB Berger Prize for British Art History, 2013.
The Berger prize judges described it as follows:...
'This elegantly produced book is hugely impressive and to the point, filling in much invaluable material and making sense of 20th-century Modernism in Britain and the place of Spence within it. An example to all of how to combine several contributions into a whole, that was the product of a vast amount of research.'
