Didn't he live in an old railway station at one time?

Superb piece of work, I love his attention to details, and the way he’s mixed eras, rather than just replicating one specific place and time.

I think he designed / built a studio near Westcomb Park station thats a bit of a miniature Italianate folly. He's a bit of a fan of / authority on the architecture at Portmerion and Clough Williams-Ellis - particularly the tricks of having the rooms and exteriors out of sync so that you have grand looking facades on modest scale buildings

EDIT actually - here you go

What no Shard? I'd have expected an inappropriate and unsubtle Piano* to take centre stage.

So is it his own project that features in the credits of BBC’s Later?

His A to Z Geographers guide to the piano is a lovely album, with a tenuous connection to this thread.
