Resources: Georgian Architecture goes online. The Georgian Group

The Georgian Group has made available via its website more than 350 articles on eighteenth-century architecture and design.
The resources can be found at this link: https://georgiangroup.org.uk/journal/
The Georgian Group Journal, edited by Dr. Geoffrey Tyack, is the authoritative journal of record for early modern architecture in Britain between 1660 to 1840 and was first published in 1986.
It is cited more often than any other title in Sir Howard Colvin’s classic work of reference: A Bio-graphical Dictionary of British Architects 1600-1840, and is essential reading for anyone interested in the development of architecture during this fascinating, vibrant period.
The journal also includes articles on architecture in Ireland and the British diaspora, and on urban development, sculpture, painting, interior decoration and garden design.
The Georgian Group is the National Amenity Society for the period 1700 to 1837. It was founded in 1937 to protect Georgian buildings, monuments, parks and gardens and to encourage their appropriate conservation.
