Abstract:
"This book is a comprehensive volume on all types of English architecture : a visual cornucopia and a tribute to the diversity of English buildings. The chapters present over 700 buildings ranging from the architectural icons, such as castles, cathedrals and country houses, to the less noticeable but equally fascinating buildings of England's towns and villages : parish churches and meeting houses, shops and hotels, town halls and market halls, windmills and lightouses, barns and bars."--publisher's description.
