William Newton and the North’s Rural Renaissance, with Richard Pears

  • Resumen

  • Richard Pears and I discuss William Newton, arguably northern England's first home-grown architect who was responsible for Newcastle’s Assembly Rooms and Charlotte Square the town’s first fashionable garden square. Richard’s work examines the emergence of the professional provincial architect and his remarkable local archive work has allowed him to supplant the standard ‘urban renaissance’ understanding of eighteenth-century studies with his own powerful argument for a northern ‘rural renaissance’. Dr Richard Pears is the Faculty Librarian for Arts and Humanities at Durham University.
