Product Description

Jonathan Meades, The Observer, 25th November 2001.
"The greatest endeavour of popular architectural scholarship in the world." --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

Product Description
The second Norfolk volume covers an area stretching from the rich farmland along the coast to the deeply rural Suffolk border. On the north coast the fine houses and merchants' premises in the medieval port of King's Lynn are of unique interest. Rural highlights include the Norman keep of Castle Rising, the highly ornamented remains of Castle Acre Priory, and the monumental brick gatehouse of Oxburgh Hall. From a later age are the two supreme examples of the great Palladian country house: Holkham, seat of the Cokes, Earls of Leicester, and Sir Robert Walpole's Houghton, both with sumptuous interiors. Outstanding 20th Century work includes Tayler & Green's rural housing and the Smithsons' Hunstanton school.

5.0 out of 5 stars Prof. Pevsner's Guides, 8 Jun 2009
By J. Bradley "Larousse" (Norfolk GB) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I also attended lectures by Prof. Pevsner at London University in the 1960s. His Guides are lucid and so worded that the amateur can easily understand his descriptions of architectural aspects of buildings.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great master at work, 2 Jun 2007
By C. Knight (Diss, Norfolk) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
In this companion to his masterly up-date on Norwich and North-East Norfolk, Bill Wilson does not disappoint. Like its sister volume, the sheer comprehensiveness, accuracy and depth of the work leave one almost breathless. This aside, the eloquent and consise writing, interwoven with the occasional and beautifully crafted rye comment are what makes the book so readable, The introduction alone makes it an essential purchase for those with a love of the county, its buildings and just damn good writing. It will remain both my bedside read and my essential guide to Norfolk for many years to come.
