Product Description

Jonathan Meades, The Observer, 25th November 2001.

"The greatest endeavour of popular architectural scholarship in the world."


Product Description

In his second volume on Norfolk, Bill Wilson provides an enlightening and comprehensive survey from prehistoric times to the present day. The magnificent remains of castles and priories stand alongside a wealth of medieval churches, richly decorated with wood and stone carving. The seventeenth- and eighteenth-century treasures of King's Lynn are explored in detail, as well as the market towns of Swaffham and Wymondham. The great country houses of Houghton and Holkham are famous for their lavish interiors and beautiful parkland, whilst the many villages show a humbler but no less appealing side of Norfolk architecture. This revised and expanded volume is a recent addition to the famous Pevsner Architectural Guides, the fruit of extensive new research and deep local knowledge. Numerous maps, plans and new photographs, full indexes and a glossary help to make this book indispensable for any lover of the county.

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.
