Synopsis
The Traditional cottage is one of the most distinctive features of the landscape of Wales. With the loss of thousands of examples over the past century it has become almost an endangered species, but a great deal has been learned from studying cherished surviving buildings and making a careful record of others before they were lost forever. The earth or timber walls, pebble floors, and roofs of rush, turf and stone in these humble buildings, among other features, tell a fascinating story of distinctive local traditions, skills handed down from generation to generation, and the struggle to survive.

Seller: Lacey Books Ltd, Cirencester, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. 2011 RCAHMW large format paperback edition. Light reading wear, else very good condition. From the cover: This book examines eighteenth- and nineteenth-century rural poor housing, utilizing physical evidence, documents, and descriptions to explore building materials and techniques. It highlights that these "home-made homes" featured sophisticated construction, optimized local materials, and relied on collective knowledge, while their survival ultimately depended on fashion and population shifts rather than build quality.
