Kathryn Ferry’s new book Sheds on the Seashore: A Tour through Beach Hut History
Choose to have it signed by Kathryn below...
Beach huts have become seaside icons. They may be small structures with basic facilities but we still love them. They feel quintessentially British, combining a shelter from our changeable weather with a place to brew a mug of tea. They’re nostalgic and trendy at the same time, a phenomenon which has turned them into surprisingly hot property. Behind these colourful buildings is a history stretching back to the invention of the seaside and the first wheeled bathing machines of the mid-eighteenth century.
Sheds on the Seashore is based on two journeys; one into the past, the other a contemporary tour around the English coast. Together they tell the story of how beach huts came into being and why they remain so beloved by their twenty-first century owners.
With a Foreword by Wayne Hemingway...
