Description

Old English Houses by J Alfred Gotch

 

Attractive as old English houses are from their appearance, their beauty is not their only claim on our attention, for they illustrate the long story of domestic architecture, which goes back to the time when men first built in this country with permanent materials. In the following pages, an attempt is made to relate the outline of that story in words that will be understood by readers unfamiliar with the subject.

 

With 7 plates and 48 illustrations.
