Abstract

" The architectural monuments of England are to be found in the country. In the vernacular where architectural forms combine with an unaccountable poise and harmony; where brick and tile and thatch and stone are used with judgement and leisurely arrangements we find the spirit which has escaped the architect's most determined efforts to establish an english architecture."
