Bombed ruins of No 1 Dix's Field, Exeter, Devon, 1942. Photographed for the National Buildings Record. Silver gelatin glass plate negative. The elegant, Regency-style No 1 Dix's Field in Exeter, was recorded before and after a Baedeker bombing raid in 1942. Based in Devon, Margaret Tomlinson was an architect and architectural historian who was ideally placed to record threatened buildings in the cities of Exeter and Plymouth. She photographed for the National Buildings Record (NBR) from 1941 and also worked as a NBR investigator from 1943. After the war she was active in the revival of the Victoria History of the Counties of England and was a listing investigator with the Ministry of Town and Country Planning.
