Synopsis

This book is published in association with Wakefield Historical Publications. Peter Brears, historic house consultant and food historian, has had a life-long interest in the ancient buildings of Wakefield and its immediate area: he recorded some in the 1960s and ’70s as they were being demolished. This handsome colour book, with over 61 illustrations, provides detailed reconstructions of buildings from the Tudor and Stuart period, when Wakefield was a major town near the Great North Road. The coloured drawings are meticulously crafted and are accompanied with a scholarly text, introduction, notes, appendix and index. The chapters cover the secular buildings (mostly shops and inns), the churches, public buildings, and gentry halls around Wakefield. Hardback book, sewn in sections (252 x 193 mm), 128 pages, printed in colour throughout index.
