From the majestic rows of gleaming white terraces in West London to
the grid of red-brick houses in northern mill towns, the legacy of
the Victorian era can be found in every area of the England. Using
his own drawings, diagrams and photographs, author Trevor Yorke
explains all aspects of the Victorian house and provides a
definitive guide for those who are renovating, tracing the history
of their own house, or are simply interested in this notable period
of history. The book provides a background to different phases of
design throughout the Victorian age from 1830 to 1902. Various
areas are considered in detail, including: the layout and use of
rooms; fixtures and fittings; sources of heat and lighting;
domestic machinery such as kitchen ranges and laundry equipment;
gardens and outbuildings. Also included is a quick reference time
chart with drawings of the period details that can help date them
and a glossary of the more unfamiliar architectural terms.
