building regulations and planning permission, tax implications, garden
office suppliers and how to build one."
With Terry Tate, I co-edited this book of oral history memories in York for the York Oral History Society while I was in my year off between school and university. It is one of a popular ongoing series that has been produced by the society since 1984.
