During the post-war years the North of England saw the building of
some of the most aspirational, enlightened and successful modernist
architecture in the world. For the first time, a single
photographic book captures those buildings, in all their power and
progressive ambition. Over the last few years acclaimed
photographer Simon Phipps has travelled and sought out the publicly
commissioned architecture of the post-war North. From Newcastle's
Byker Wall Estate, voted the best neighbourhood in the UK, to the
extraordinary Park Hill Estate in Sheffield, from Preston's
sweeping bus station and Liverpool's Royal Insurance Building,
these structures have seen off threats to their survival and are
rightly celebrated for the imprint they leave upon the skyline and
the cultural life of their cities.This inspiring invitation to
explore northern modernism includes maps and detailed information
about all the architecture photographed.
