fantastic pattern book

[plasticpigeon]

Here is a link to the pattern book, "An encyclopædia of cottage, farm, and villa architecture and furniture" by Louden. Fantastic for anyone with an early Victorian house, and interesting reading for anyone else. One day I will find one that includes plans for late Victorian/Edwardian terraces!!!!

Thanks for that, I've already found this on Google books but having a PDF thats downloadable is nice.

For those looking for furniture ideas try this link for the "modern style of cabinet work"

A search on that site for "designs" with the dates 1800-1840 throws up a lot of wonderful late-Georgian pattern books.
