Publisher's Synopsis

The Plymouth Building Accounts record the expenditure on three public building projects undertaken in Plymouth between 1564 and 1620, including the building of the Guildhall in 1606-7. This edition, with introduction, tells us much about the city's builders, their wages, and the techniques they used, and will interest historians of architecture and of urban economies.

About the Publisher

Devon and Cornwall Record Society

Boydell & Brewer Ltd was formed in 1978. It merged two companies, Boydell Press and D.S. Brewer, whose founders, Richard Barber and Derek Brewer, were themselves scholars - Brewer a Chaucer specialist and subsequently Professor of English and Master of Emmanuel College, Barber a medieval historian and Arthurian. Richard Barber is still a highly active scholar and continues to publish eminently in his own right and offers a vast amount of knowledge and experience to Boydell & Brewer.
