Synopsis

England has a wealth of surviving houses from past centuries, be they country mansions or rustic framed cottages, and the circumstances of the age are often reflected in the interiors. Linda Hall charts the development of the fixtures and fittings we still see today - from medieval and Tudor times to Georgian and Victorian. Each chapter deals with a different component, and is supplemented by photographs and line drawings. This book will be useful for anyone with an interest in period features - as a reference book for restoration or a guide to visits.
