description Although studies on Le Corbusier appear to have covered almost all the topics possible, strange though it may seem, the few visits he made to Britain have still not been investigated in detail. A recent publication under the title Le Corbusier and Britain at first sight appeared to cover this gap, but the book in fact concentrated solely on the reception of the Swiss architect in England, as seen through an anthology of texts given over to critical reviews of his writings or comments on his work. The present paper is intended to provide further details, especially on the basis of unpublished letters between Le Corbusier and Wells Coates from 1938, of letters between the architect and his family, and of projects included in his complete works 1.
