The Dated Buildings of South Lonsdale

Emmeline Garnett
£17.95

Dating and initialling buildings has been a local habit since the 17th century. This book attempts a complete collection of examples in the Old Hundred of Lonsdale South of the Sands, with a historical background to each one. The arrangement by townships, and within the township by dates, make it easy to identify a particular building, while indexes of names and places allows family and local historians to follow their particular interests.

There have been many surveys and visitations about the carving and understanding of the misericords, and many photographs, but Thirlie Grundys is the first study by an artist who has used both her pencil to illustrate the subtleties of every detail, and also her hands and fingers to discover parts invisible to the eye - let alone the camera.
