Saving Antarctica's Historic Huts

Outlook

Available for over a year

A team in Antarctica is trying to preserve the 100-year-old wooden huts used by the legendary explorers Shackleton and Scott. The huts are like time capsules of the early twentieth century. The man who runs the project, Nigel Watson, told Matthew Bannister how he first got involved 17 years ago, when he was working as a lawyer in Christchurch, New Zealand. Photo: Shackleton's hut.
