Nottinghamshire
Full of memorable and surprising buildings, Nottingham is a county that rewards close investigation. Great medieval churches are represented by Worksop, Newark and by Southwell, with its exquisite carved 'leaves'. Of its country houses, Wollaton Hall shows Elizabethan architecture at its most fantastic, Bunny Hall the English Baroque at its most bizarre, while Lord Byron's Newstead Abbey incorporates one of the strangest of all monastic ruins. The city of Nottingham, marvellously set between hills, is crowded with sturdy Victorian and Edwardian commercial buildings, and enlivened by a strong local tradition of first-rate Modernist architecture.

Mediaeval Hospitals of England
First Published in 2004. The study of these ancient charities calls attention to extent of leprosy in England and the early foundations for strangers linked to the widespread practice of pilgrimage. This title aims to serve as an example and pattern for young and earnest students of real history, the history of ordinary human beings rather than of generals and of kings. This also acts as a book of reference for readers and writers, a treatise on the Mediaeval Hospitals of England.
