viii, 120pp, many colour plates & plans, b/w photo plates & incl text illustrations. Folding coloured master plan in rear pocket. 31x25, glt lettered blue cloth. Very good copy. The 1945 Bath reconstruction plan, typically elaborate, with fine maps, plans, photos etc. The city had suffered a nasty bombing raid in April, 1942, bu…t the Georgians had built well and the city, though bruised, was largely intact. Abercrombie seeks to restore Bath's Georgian integrity by removing much of the Victorian bye-law housing. The Spa should be re-established and there should be a new inner ring road, shopping area, 'traffic islands' etc. New housing was also an urgent neccesity. One of the rarer reconstruction plans.

Each letter 1p., 4to. The collection in fair condition, on aged and worn paper. Two items with the Society's stamp. The first three items from 1930, relate to the appointment of a chairman for a 'meeting in March' by Abercrombie at the Society. On 28 November he suggests the Bishop of Chichester, 'who as Dean of Canterbury worke…d in very close co-operation with me, or Lady Milner'. He next (11 December) suggests 'Lord Cornwallis of the Kent County Council, who is also a member of the East Kent Committee'. He is pleased (16 December) when Cornwallis agrees, writing: 'He has taken a great interest in the work in Kent from its very beginning and it is of the more importance to have him as he represents the wider outlook of the whole county of Kent.' Two letters from 1931 relate to another talk and the typescript of a paper from it to be printed in the Society's journal. On 16 March Anbercrombie enquires: 'I have been asked by a friend who is coming whether it is usual to wear full evening dress on these occasions. My own idea is that that would be desirable for the lecturer but dinner jacket and black tie would be quite suitable for the audience.' On 1 March 1934 he asks to 'see someone and select slides both from the West Wycombe and the late Sir Frank Baines' collection', anticipating that he will 'get something extremely useful for my lecture'. For information on Anbercrombie, see his entry in the Oxford DNB.
