Thomas Hudson Turner's 1851 survey of domestic architecture in England from the Conquest to the close of the thirteenth century, published in Oxford and London by J. H. Parker for antiquaries and students of medieval building. The plates are antiquarian measured drawings and views of houses, halls and domestic remains, mostly printed sideways on the page. Their hatched stone walls, pointed windows and steep gables show medieval masonry and roof forms a designer could use as period reference for stone texture and arched openings.
