Black and white half-timbered buildings are a distinctive and much loved feature of England's countryside and historic old towns. Originally published in 1904 and presented here in a remastered edition, Old Cottages, Farm Houses and other Half-Timber Buildings in Shropshire, Herefordshire and Cheshire features some of the finest and most celebrated examples of the half-timbered style, including Stokesay Castle and the Reader's House in Ludlow. Numerous atmospheric photographs by architectural woodworker James Parkinson accompany notes and sketches by E A Ould, highlighting the construction, ornamentation and regional character of buildings dating mostly from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Detailed and fascinating for anyone interested in history, architecture or rural life, Old Cottages, Farm Houses and other Half-Timber Buildings conducts the reader upon a nostalgic yet informed journey around one of the most appealing areas of England's past.
