The Gatehouse. The comprehensive listing of medieval fortifications and castles in England and Wales.

Vernacular Buildings of Shropshire

Madge Moran



Detailed book of Shropshire vernacular building excluding castles and, therefore, not of much interest. However, does give a detailed description of some fortified sites like Charlton House in Shropshire. The first chapter is called defensive house and gives information on Shropshire longhouse. These have a superficial resemblance to the later northern bastles but I have not included these in my listings as no other author considers these defensive.
