Professor Gary Boyd, Professor of Architecture at Queen’s University, Belfast, will be speaking to the 20th Century Society on the 6th July about the impact of architecture on the UK’s coal industry during the 20th century. This will include its crucial role as a force for modernisation and the part it played in enhancing worker welfare. This richly illustrated talk examines aspects of this architecture of coal and its forms, actors, and impacts.
