Pevsner’s Architectural Glossary
This is the essential companion to the terms used in the
Pevsner Architectural Guides. Pevsner’s famous designations
E. E. and Perp. are among the terms clearly explained in this
informative glossary drawn from the vocabulary of the
Buildings of England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland volumes.
And anyone who has wondered how a headstop relates to a
hoodmould or what a squich looks like, will find their
understanding and enjoyment of architecture enhanced by
knowledge of its components, styles and ornament. Many of
the entries are supported by line drawings, and photographic
sections provide an attractive sequence illustrating stylistic
developments in both religious and secular architecture.
