Through their role in transport, militarisation or energy production, these pastoral, bucolic or rugged areas have evolved their own architectures and infrastructures.

Larger structures become part of identity, embodying a community role which transcends their function. As symbols of working and social life, their memory persists long after the structures themselves have gone. The recent demolition of Ironbridge B’s cooling towers – designed to blend with the landscape – will stand as testament to this. Whilst its industrial revolution neighbours are preserved in the nearby gorge, these modern structures are cleared to make way for a new modern: it is up to us to preserve these as best we can – through our words, memories, images and interpretations, something which will become more pressing as an increasing number of post-war examples reach the end of their working lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eJoin our contributors as we explore the diversity of rural modern juxtapositions, covering everything from domestic architecture to concrete ‘listening ears’ in the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eCONTENTS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eINTRODUCTION \/ GUEST EDITOR Linda Ross\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\"\u003eHEBRIDEAN BRUTALISM Alex Boyd \/\/ TECTON IN THE CHILTERNS Clare Griffiths \/\/ TURN ON THE WICHERT Karen Fitzsimon \/\/ ANTI-BUCOLIC Jethro Marshall \/\/ COME BACK MICHELANGELO!
