Spanning the Centuries: The historic bridges of Northamptonshire
No full textThis book, specially commissioned by Northamptonshire County Council (and written, designed and photographed by MOLA, with a Foreword by Tony Ciaburro of NCC), celebrates the rich diversity of the county’s historic bridges, specifically the 104 Listed by Historic England. There are many more within the county but these may be said to represent the best ones and moreover reveal the hsitory and development of bridges over time. These bridges include one Roman (although long-buried), 38 ‘historic’ bridges, ranging in date from the 13th to the 19th century, and another 20 ‘ornamental’ bridges within the great landscaped estates that Northamptonshire is famous for. The technical ingenuity that came with the Industrial Revolution is represented by the new bridges for canals and railways

No full textThe Deptford royal dockyard and manor of Sayes Court, London: Excavations 2000-12
No full textThe largest-ever excavation of a naval dockyard revealed storehouses, docks, slipways, cover buildings, mast ponds, a smithy and other structures. These remains are integrated with maps and documents to chart the yard’s development, from its opening in the early 16th century to its closure in 1869. Countless ships – among them the Mary Rose and Golden Hinde – were built, repaired or stored here, and the dockyard saw visits by royalty, including Peter the Great, and many others, notably the 17th-century diarists Samuel Pepys (of the Navy Board) and John Evelyn (whose home was Sayes Court), and the 19th-century engineer John Rennie
