Description

The sporting lodge has played a significant role in many estates over the years. This beautifully illustrated book explores the history and development of these lodges, as well as their connections to fishing huts and modern luncheon lodges. From Charles Cotton's Fishing House, built in 1674, to more recent examples, the authors provide informative and lively accounts of life in the lodge, both past and present. The book delves into the details of gun-rooms, rod-rooms, game books, fishing registers, and hunting diaries, as well as the outbuildings that accompanied these lodges. With its unique blend of historical tales and modern anecdotes, this book offers a superb portrait of the British sporting institution.
