Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Building features and materials are being lost or replaced on older houses at an alarming rate. The appearance of this book is, therefore, most welcome for it enables the reader to identify original features and materials that have been used on houses from the Georgian period, through the Victorian and Edwardian periods and up until 1939--a period when building techniques and architectural styles changed significantly.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
