Over the past 25 years a number of notable studies have demonstrated the huge potential of studying vernacular buildings in urban areas \u2013 studies both of specific towns and cities and of urban building types more generally. Many of these have illustrated the value of multi-disciplinary approaches to the subject of urban buildings, but it is also clear that there is more to do in making vernacular buildings a key part of wider urban historical studies. We invite papers looking at urban buildings of all types, particularly non-domestic, and also studies of specific towns and cities. Papers considering this subject from a different disciplinary background, or taking a multi-disciplinary approach, are particularly welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The conference will take place at the University of Nottingham, on 10 and 11 January 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Submissions are encouraged from academics, students, and non-academics alike. <br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vag.org.uk\/vag-winter-conference-2026-CFP.pdf\">Call for Papers<\/a><br>The deadline for abstracts is 31 August 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Information about the Group\u2019s conferences can be found at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vag.org.uk\/conferences.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.vag.org.uk\/conferences.htm<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The theme of the Vernacular Architecture Group\u2019s next winter conference will be&nbsp;Vernacular buildings in urban contexts: The study of urban building types and integration with urban studies.
