Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin 1812 - 1852. God's Own Architect.


In this BBC programme, Richard Taylor restores Pugin to his rightful place as one of the giants of The Victorian Age by taking us into his Gothic fantasy land.

From The Houses of Parliament to Alton Towers, from thousands of Churches throughout the Country to the details and furnishings of suburban family houses, Pugin changed the face of Britain with his visionary Gothic architecture.
