Publisher's Synopsis
From the 14th-century roof at Drayton House to the English Baroque of Easton Neston, the country houses of Northamptonshire present a cross-section of English architecture. Lesser-known buildings included in this book vary from late-medieval manors such as hardwick manor House to the Neo-Classical facade of Ayaho park. The volume contains a gazetteer exploring the development of 59 Northamptonshire country houses. It is illustrated with photographs, drawings and plans, as well as reproductions of engravings and other early documents.
