The Country Houses, Castles and Mansions of Northern Ireland



Author : Rose Jane Leslie
ISBN : 9781840335392
Cover : paperback
Price : £11.95

This informative little volume covers a period of building stretching from the seventeenth century through to the end of the nineteenth. This was a period when fortunes were being made almost overnight and lost just as quickly as Great Britain inexorably carved out its global trading empire. The buildings pictured encompass a wealth of architectural styles including, Neoclassical, Scottish Baronial, Tudorbethan and Gothic. Some of the houses featured have sadly been lost but many remain as representative of the opulence of their age and as testament to the architectural ingenuity of their designers. The accompanying narrative provides interesting anecdotal details about the buildings and their owners.
