Royal Gazette: National Trust completes building series with Southampton Book

The architectural heritage of Southampton has been highlighted in the latest – and final – edition of the Bermuda National Trust’s Architectural Heritage book series.

The series, which started in 1995, took a parish-by-parish look at the island’s buildings and the people who built, lived and worked inside them.

Southampton was written by historian Edward Harris, edited and co-written by Alistair Border and features photographs by Robin Judah and Katie Berry along with plans and historic illustrations.
