England is home to some 376,000 listed buildings, monuments and landscapes, ranging from single telephone kiosks and AA boxes to whole terraces and groups of houses. Most of these designations range from the 18th to 19th centuries, with only 0.2 per cent structures created after 1945. Yet what post-war listed buildings lack in number they make up for in their rich diversity, from humble prefabs, bathhouses and bus shelters to country houses, concrete high-rises and high-tech offices. This book presents more than 650 of these remarkable listed entries, expanding and more than doubling on the entries author Elain Harwood first presented in 2000 in her Guide to Post-War Listed Buildings.
