Description
This comprehensive study explores domestic buildings in London from 1200 to the Great Fire in 1666. John Schofield examines houses and related structures, drawing on evidence from surviving buildings, archaeological excavations, documents, and visual records.
The book provides a detailed overview of medieval and Tudor London houses, including their plans, rooms, materials, and internal fittings. It also discusses the special characteristics of living in the capital, such as innovations in plan and construction that first emerged in London before spreading to other towns.
With over 200 sites featured in the City of London and its immediate environs, this generously illustrated text offers a unique insight into the history of domestic buildings in medieval London.
