**NEW REVISED AND UPDATED EDITION**

The original and definitive pocket guide to London's architecture.

Discover how to 'read' London's buildings and uncover the stories behind the city's streets. This new edition is fully revised and updated, featuring five brand-new entries, refreshed chapter introductions, and redesigned maps.

Spanning more than 2,000 years of settlement, London's built environment is the product of a uniquely organic evolution. From the elegant Georgian squares of the West End to medieval alleys in the City, industrial Victorian landmarks and striking contemporary icons, each building tells part of the capital's story.

Through clear explanations and rich visuals, How to Read London helps you:

  • Decode architectural styles and features, from Classical and Gothic to Modern and Postmodern.
  • Understand the forces that shaped the city, from the Great Fire of 1666 to modern regeneration.
  • Explore iconic landmarks and hidden gems across domestic, civic and commercial architecture.
