Terra Britannica

A celebration of earthen structures in Great Britain and Ireland, Terra Britannica outlines the range of earth building types and materials encountered. It is divided into regional chapters, each of which discusses the historical, geological and social, as well as technological, aspects of traditional earth construction in that region. The book concludes with three chapters on the archaeology of earth, on World Heritage sites in Britain, and on earthen architecture in the new millennium. Published in association with English Heritage.
