This series offers descriptions, spiced by lively and informed comment, of every building of architectural importance in every county of England. Besides the grand set pieces - cathedrals and their furnishings, great country houses and their parks, the commercial and industrial architecture of Victorian cities - the reader is introduced to lesser delights, from village churches to garden follies, from pubs to pumping stations.
The introductions provide a historical survey of each county's art and architecture, which is illustrated in a central section of over a hundred photographs and in the text by many specially drawn maps and plans. The series - chiefly written by Sir Nikolaus himself - continues to grow into new editions which keep it up to date with contemporary developments and with the latest scholarly discoveries.
