COUNTRY COTTAGES PB by Greeves Lydia
Published in association with the National Trust, this book looks at the country cottage in Britain, in areas that range from Cornwall to Northumbria and from East Anglia to Wales. Some of the cottages are reflections of place, showing how, for centuries, people used the materials around them to create buildings. These are the cottages that were built by hand, with the traditional vernacular skills that led to the cob and thatch of the West country, the half-timbering of the Weald of Kent and Sussex and of the Welsh Borders, and the gabled golden stone of the Cotswolds. Others were purpose-built and architect-designed, forming trim terraces in 100 estate villages, or set beside a waterway or on a remote coast for lock-keepers, coastguards and lighthouse attendants.| SKU | Unavailable |
