Bricks of Victorian London

A social and economic history

Beschreibung

Many of Londonâ s Victorian buildings are built of coarse-textured yellow bricks â London stocks, produced in huge quantities through the 19th century. Whether visible or hidden, they form a major part of the fabric of the capital. This detailed history of the industry offers a fresh perspective on the social and economic history of the city.
