Cheltenham's Lost Heritage by Oliver Bradbury

Cheltenham's Lost Heritage by Oliver Bradbury

At a conservative estimate, some 350 to 400 buildings of historical importance have been lost in Cheltenham over the last two centuries. Although this is only a fraction of the town's building stock, it has certainly left a visual impression of complete devastation in some areas. This visually stunning new book, written by architectural historian Oliver Bradbury, showcases over 100 of the best lost buildings - some well remembered and much missed, others completely forgotten. A huge range of illustrations, many paired as 'past and present', document the changing scene. Regency pastiche or rampaging Modernism: to choose from either presents a permanent dilemma for a town such as Cheltenham. This book examines just some of the architectural and planning decisions that have shaped the town we live in today, for better or worse.
