Sometimes one simply calls an end to a thread: the idea of ‘too much information’ applies. But on this occasion the response has been absolutely fascinating. It reminds me of André Kertész’s book On Reading.

 

Best wishes,

An American take might be the innumerable Quaker sheds associated with meeting houses and schools.

This is a bit of a shot in the dark, but is anyone able to help? Someone across The Pond?

Thanks,

Dear Arlisans,

 

I wonder whether anyone can help me with a request for “an image of a true bike shed would you?!  i.e. no design elements, as Pevsner intended!”. Apparently the schools in Glasgow where such things may have existed “have been ravaged”.

 

Many thanks,

 

Richard
