George Bernard Mason: Buildings Photographer 1896-1985
George Bernard Mason worked as an architectural Photographer, taking over 11,000 photographs for the National Buildings Record from the 1940s to the 1960s. Among these are many pioneering records of Welsh buildings threatened with demolition including many country houses.
Wales became his adopted home, and from the 1950s to the 1970s G. B. Mason lived with his wife in the 16th century Snowdonian house Pant Glas Uchaf, Garndolbenmaen, Caernarfonshire.
This collection shows some of his photographs of buildings in Wales, from churches to farm buildings, captured at a point in time before many were renovated or demolished.
