Episode 3 Part 1: A Building's Soul?

In the first of this two part episode we're talking to Michael Shapland, historic buildings archaeologist.

How does one record historic places before they are due to be changed or demolished, and how do we capture not only the structure itself, but its ‘spirit’ – and is that even possible? Michael takes us through some historic examples, and to Emily's childhood bedroom, to tell us how! Don't forget to check out part 2 of this episode, out 31st July, where we peel away the many layers of the Brighton Dome, discovering quakers, prince regents, mistresses, WW1 soldiers, the UN, and ABBA!
