Description

Excerpt: "Let me take you into an old-fashioned country house, built by architects of the early reign of James the First.

It had all the peculiarities--I might almost say the oddities--of that particular epoch in the building art.

Chimneys innumerable had it. Heaven only knows what rooms they ventilated; but their name must have been legion.

The windows were not fewer in number, and much more irregular: for the chimneys were gathered together in some sort of symmetrical arrangement, while the windows were scattered all over the various faces of the building, with no apparent arrangement at all."
