Originally published in 1948, and edited by the artist John Piper, An English Farmhouse is Geoffrey Grigson's careful survey of the old English farmhouse, and its associated buildings, whether made from sarsen, thatch, timber, tile or brick. Grigson paints a vivid and human picture of rural life in the preceding centuries and creates a delicate weave of social history.
Geoffrey Grigson (1905 to 1985) was a poet, writer, editor, critic, curator and naturalist. He was editor of the influential New Verse magazine and was a founder of the Institute for Contemporary Arts.
