"In this account my aim has been to describe and discuss, mainly chronologically, but occasionally thematically, aspects of the life and work of the architect and designer Edward Welby Pugin (1834-1875) in Kent, and particularly in Ramsgate, where he lived as a child, to where he returned in 1861, and where he spent a considerable amount of his time thereafter. I wanted to try to bring him to the forefront, away from the shadow of his celebrated father, and to consider how his architecture and approach to his profession changed and developed from that of Augustus Pugin. I have ventured some judgements about his work stylistically, and have attempted to provide some background material that highlights the particular demands made upon him locally, demands that helped to shape both his buildings and himself..."-- Introduction.
A good, well illustrated source on Edward Pugin (1834-1875), architect son of A. W. Pugin. Much of his later career was spent in Kent.
