THE CASTELLATED AND

DOMESTIC ARCHITECTURE OF SCOTLAND FROM THE TWELFTH TO THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY

5 Vintage e-Books on 1 DVD

A number of the sketches

and plans which form the illustrations in the following pages were exhibited a

few years ago in connection with papers on \""Scottish Castles and

Houses,\"" read before the Edinburgh Architectural Association, when the

attention they received suggested the idea of the present work.

No book has hitherto been

published which deals systematically with the history of Scottish Castellated

and Domestic Architecture. The late Mr. Billings' valuable work on the Baronial

and Ecclesiastical Antiquities of Scotland is an important contribution, and

his beautiful drawings are a charming

record of the edifices he illustrates. Mr. Billings has also the merit of being

amongst the very first to recognise and draw attention to the importance of our

Scottish Domestic Architecture.

But the absence of plans

is a serious drawback.
