About this title

Synopsis

Tudor manor or Regency villa, Victorian terrace or 1920s ‘Moderne’ semi-detached: in this well-illustrated guide Trevor Yorke explains how to investigate their histories. After introductions tracing the development of housing and domestic architecture, there are chapters on each element of a building, from materials and construction to interior fittings, plus details of how to extend your search to the historical context and past occupants of a house.
