The author guides the reader through the development of thatching,
the materials used including imported ones and the artistic work
that creates the charm and beauty of a thatched roof. There are
extensive chapters giving a host of practical tips for those living
in thatched houses, including the advantages and disadvantages,
maintenance, fire precautions, costs, insurance, etc. A glossary
reveals the many unusual terms used by the thatcher and there is a
list of useful addresses for further advice. The Complete Guide to
Living with Thatch contains a wealth of practical information and
advice for all those who live in or who are contemplating buying a
thatched house, old or new. It also provides a unique reference
guide and record of the hundreds of attractive thatched villages
and curiosities - many of them illustrated - to visit in the
British Isles. A summary of thatching worldwide is also given. This
book will delight all lovers of the countryside and those
interested in our rural heritage.
