Publisher Description:
This volume examines the building materials used in around 200 Berkshire churches dating from Georgian Gothic and Classical revivals of the turn of the nineteenth century to the Victorian Gothic rival and the years leading up the the First World War. The origins of the building materials are also discussed, and combined with documentary evidence, are used to provide conclusions about changing transportation and building costs.
