Synopsis :

Stables and stable blocks are one of the building types most evocative of the spirit of bygone times. This book examines the architecture of stables of all kinds from humble farm buildings to the ornate and stylish courtyard blacks of great country houses. Among the endless variety of building shapes and forms are curiosities like circular stable blocks for canal horses and multi-storey stables for urban draught horses. This book illustrates a wide range of examples and relates them to a broad pattern of building development.

À propos de l?auteur: Christopher Powell studied architecture at the University of Bristol and social history at Brunel University. He worked as an achitect in London and the South-east. He currently lectures at the Welsh School of Architecture, University of Wales College of Cardiff.
