Amberley Publishing Walk through Southampton: Rediscovering Henry Englefield

GTIN: 9781398127203
In 1801 the antiquarian and astronomer Sir Henry Englefield wrote a beautifully illustrated walking tour leading readers through the streets of Southampton. He offered insights into the towns fascinating historical past, including some fanciful stories about the buildings he was exploring. Since then, much of the fabric of the town has changed with many of the elements he highlighted having been removed through the slum clearances of the twentieth century and bombing during the Second World War. In this book, we retrace Sir Henrys footsteps and examine key sites, such as the Bargate, Watergate, the town walls, Church of All Saints, Holy Rood Church, the medieval friary and sugar house, and the medieval vaults, as well as other curiosities he mentions, such as a cannon of Henry VIII and the arms granted by Elizabeth I. Featuring a vivid selection of fascinating illustrations and 3D images and links to the citys museum collections, here the Southampton of the past is brought to life. Join us on a walking tour through the historic town and find out how the modern city of Southampton has changed over the past 200 years. Autorid: Andy Skinner, Richard Henry
