SAVING LONDON

london-footprints.co.uk

In 1991 English Heritage published a 'Register of Buildings at Risk in Greater London'. Of almost 1000 buildings listed 94% have now been repaired, restored and brought back into use. Some case studies have been published and are available online at http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/content/publications/docs/saving-london.pdf

A number of these feature on my walks as listed below.
