Re: Re: Victorian / Georgian House Plan Books

ctesiphon – Thank you for that great reference on Craig’s book, I will pick it up immedately. With reference to some excellent points you raised, the setting is rural west cork area and the site is almost entirely wooded, the site is part of a larger country estate which would have been an old country seat of the landed gentry until the turn of the twentieth century. The main house is now in private hands and is neither visible nor accessible to the public and to my knowledge there are no published pictures of the property’s facade. The client has suggested the ruin may have been either the home of a family member of the owner of the main house and/or a “glebe” house. The site size is approximately 2 – 2.5 acreas.

Any further references on victorian, georgion period properties house would be warmly welcomed. And of course any such references with cork or west cork specific designs would be a real find !
