This evocative collection of photographs from the world-famous Francis Frith archive depicts the country houses of England in all their glory and variety, from the homely medieval manor house of Cotehele on the banks of the River Tamar, to the Gothic splendours of Knebworth.

England’s country houses constitute an invaluable record in brick and stone of our nation’s history and heritage. These fascinating photographs reveal their unique wealth of architecture, art and design.

Frith’s historic photographs are renowned the world over for their clarity and fine detail. Unlike many local history books that reproduce old postcards, this book is packed with high-quality photographs carefully chosen from the Frith archive.
