Więcej o książce
On the west side of Parliament Square just north of Westminster Abbey stands the Middlesex Guildhall, a building completed in 1913, a quarter of a century after the site on which it stands had ceased to be part of the County of Middlesex. It contained the Council Chamber of the Middlesex County Council and even after the formation of the Greater London Council in 1965 and the final extinction of Middlesex as a administrative area, it contained the Middlesex Quarter Sessions. Such are the anomalies surrounding the chief public building of a county so intimately linked with the life of the capital and thus of the nation. At Agincourt: The Londoners and Middlesex as oneAre by the red cross and the dagger known. In this book, John Bethell has sought out and photographed all that is best in what is eternally and unmistakably Middlesex landscape. Philip Scoones' splendidly informative text reminds us of an historical legacy that is equally timeless and unaffected by the vagaries of government legislation.
