Timber-framed buildings are a distinctive and treasured part of Britain' s heritage, with such noteworthy examples as Little Moreton Hall, Anne Hathaway' s Cottage and Lavenham Guildhall. The oldest are medieval but their numbers peaked in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, with a revival in the nineteenth. The majority of timber-framed buildings are houses, but wood was used in all kinds of other buildings, including shops, inns, churches, town halls and farm buildings. In this beautifully illustrated book, Richard Hayman outlines the history of timber-framed designs, and considers the techniques used in their construction, the regional variations in style that can be found, and how these buildings displayed social status. He also guides the reader in identifying structures now concealed behind later work and explores how these buildings have been treated in subsequent centuries.
Richard Hayman is an independent buildings historian and archaeologist who writes about the cultural history of buildings and places in Britain. He has written several titles for Shire, including Churches and Churchyards of England and Wales and The Tudor Reformation.
