Domestic Village Architecture in Eden at the Turn of the Millennium
Domestic village architecture in Eden at the turn of the millennium. Tom Clare PhD., FSA 1. INTRODUCTION: the purpose of the record. Although the majority of the population of the United Kingdom now live in urban areas the “English village” continues to have a fascination for many as a place to live in (if only the circumstances allow) or holiday in: witness the popularity of television programmes like “Escape to the Country”, Miss Marple or “Emmerdale Farm”.
