Welcome to the Construction History Society.

We are an organisation interested in the How?, Where? and Why? aspects of buildings. We are interested in buildings from all periods of history and from all around the world. The CHS can offer a wealth of information from its members and its archives of publications, newsletters and industry documentation. We have members of all ages and from many professional, amateur, academic and construction industry backgrounds. The CHS is an international society and we would like to encourage new overseas members to join the Society.

We hope that you will enjoy our web site.
