The English Country House

Focusing on the architectural evolution of English country houses, this guide serves as a valuable resource for architects, designers, and historians. It covers various historical periods, from the English Vernacular era to the rise of the architect and the cult of the antique, while also exploring garden design. With contributions like a foreword by Osbert Sitwell and an index, it is an essential addition for National Trust members and anyone interested in England's architectural heritage.
