Examples taken from over twenty English counties, identifying different styles and materials and showing the relationship between the house, its land and the wider urban space. A guide to looking at your own period house, identifying and dating original elements and later changes, with advice on sources for historical research. Looking at how gardens have developed and using the seminal influence of large gardens to design the space around a small period property. An explanation of listed building status, conservation areas and period house buying.
