This richly illustrated book offers you a special opportunity to embark on a thrilling journey back in time: now you can revisit the villages of England as they were in a past era.
This evocative collection of photographs has been specially chosen from the world-famous Francis Frith Collection, the topographical archive renowned for the fine quality of its images.
Embark on a fascinating country-wide tour and glimpse the wealth of regional styles in English cottage and house building down the centuries - including cob, brick, timber-framing, stone, thatch, tile and slate. See the village life as it was in a past era, with duck ponds, village shops and post offices, carts and wagons, and the weekly produce market. Enjoy a glimpse of a more peaceful world, where the cows of the milking herd amble slowly by along the village street, and children play on the green and out in the stubbled wheatfields.
Finely detailed, these stunning photographs offer a fascinating glimpse of a past era of English village life.
