The Snowdon Aviary at London Zoo was designed between 1960-1 and built between 1962-5. Designed by Lord Snowdon, alongside Cedric Price, it was the commission of Lord Snowdon's great friend Sir Hugh Casson in a plan to completely modernise and expand the zoo, after the austerity years following the Second World War. Britain's first walk-through aviary, and the first constructed with architecture in mind, it was listed in 2007, much to Lord Snowdon's pride.
