Perhaps slightly lesser known Antarctic Huts built in 1912? But very interesting nonetheless..
...a two part documentary concerning the history and on-going conservation efforts of the Mawson's Huts Foundation for Mawson's Huts, Cape Denison, Antarctica.
The Mawson's Huts Foundation has been established to conserve in perpetuity for the Australian people the unique, historical buildings known as Mawson's Huts, base for one of the most significant expeditions in Antarctic history.
Conservation,part one and two:
