The book is in near fine condition (black faux leather boards with gilt lettering and decoration to spine and gilt decoration to front) with creasing to the back board. The book is in a very good unclipped dust jacket which has light creasing and a fingernail closed tear to the bottom edge of the spine and some light creasing to the back cover and back inner flap. Internally the pages are clean and tight and there are no tears or inscriptions.

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 the lesser delights, from village churches to garden follies, from pubs to pumping stations. Includes a central section which provides illustration to the historical survey of each county's art and architecture with over a hundred photographs, as well as many specially drawn maps and plans.
