The Evolution of the English House

About this book

The Evolution of the English House (1933) discusses the popular and native art in domestic English architecture, tracing the changes over the years. The focus is on plain wattled huts and combinations of dwelling-house and cattle-stall, as well as the great villas and picturesque timber houses of the wealthy. In this way the author establishes how the masses of the English people lived in past times.
