  Home seekers are drawn to the elegance and style created by Victorian architects and builders. Regardless of their size there is an irresistable attraction for well proportioned rooms, lofty ceilings, decorative plasterwork and exuberant fireplaces. The authors explain the social and technical characteristics in the design of the Victorian house and explain how to tackle difficulties that arise from its structure, decoration and layout. They help the reader to decide how far to modernize and how far to retain the style and features of the original building.
